Sony Vaio VGN-TXN10 Notebook with Sprint Mobile Broadband Capability

The new Sony VAIO VGN-TXN10 Series notebook connects to the Sprint Power VisionSM Network for wireless, broadband-speed for downloading e-mail and accessing the Internet and large data files. You'll have to wait for later this year though for Sprint's upgrade to EV-DO Revision A (Rev. A) technology for even faster mobile broadband connections. These laptops have a carbon fiber chassis, and weigh just 2.8-pounds, and with average download speeds of 450 to 800 kbps and upload speeds of 300 to 400 kbps, the one-inch thin VAIO TX notebooks should be great for mobile computing.

There's a state-of-the-art, ultra-low voltage Intel Core Solo processor for increased computing power and standard battery life of between five to 11 hours. The notebooks are Windows Vista capable and Windows Vista Premium ready. Additional features include a fingerprint sensor, a vibrant XBRITE  11.1-inch widescreen display (measured diagonally), DVD+R double layer/DVD+RW drive and Sony’s Instant Mode, so you can watch movies or listen to music without having to boot up the machine.

Sony VAIO VGN-TXN10 Series notebooks, with mobile broadband capability, will be available in late September, starting at about $2,300 in charcoal, platinum, sienna and slate blue.
