Sony’s New Ultraportable TZ Range Breaks Cover
We knew Sony had a sexy little Ultraportablewaiting in the wings, we just didn’t know when it might drop and what might be inside of it. Well thanks to French retailerGrosbill, who seem to have got trigger-happy with their product listings, the VAIO TZ range has been unveiled.
More photos and complete specs after the cut…
Two models were listed, VAIO TZ11MN/N and VAIO TZ11XN/B, seemingly differentiated only by basic hardware choices such as RAM, hard-drive and lid colour (1GB, 80GB and silver, respectively, on the N; 2GB, 100GB and black on the B). Otherwise it’s niceties such as the 11.1-inch X-black LED-backlit display (running at WXGA 1366 x 768), built in DVD re-writer, gigabit ethernet, a/b/g WiFi and Bluetooth 2.0
No release date has been established yet, nor prices, but they’re expected to be released at some point in the Summer.
