Sony's TX1 Laptop

Time was, all the trendies down in Shoreditch were using Pa's money to buy themselves the latest skinny little Sony VAIO laptop. But since Apple has taken a firm grip on the ironic hair brigade, Sony has been left out in the cold a tad. It's still making those rather nice super-portable notebooks, however, including this latest TX1 model. Available in both black and white, it weighs just 1.25kg, features one of those lovely, glossy X-black wide screen displays, a DVD writer, wireless, Bluetooth and a 60GB Hard Drive.

It doesn't have the "OMG!!, it's tiiiiny!!" visual impact of the X505, but it's certainly no porker. Besides, the X505 was unusable so maybe that's for the best. Shoreditch may have turned its back on them, but this TX1 is looking rather appealing from my less trendy end of town. I don't think that last sentence did either of us any favours, but I'm going to stick with it nevertheless. It's available from October with prices starting around £1500.
