The Zone

If a price of a product indicates its spec sheet, then we wouldn't be 'blown away' by the Sony VAIO UX-series UMPC, thanks to its 1GB of RAM, Core 2 Solo processor, 48GB SSD, 1.3 Megapixel camera and a 4.5" 1024 x 600 screen, but hell, in a world where small does not come cheap, its as good as it gets! Interestingly, its sticker price is USD2500, which makes it out of reach for us puny journalists here in Malaysia (well, most of us anyways), but there's another competitor which Sony should fear - the EeePC from Asus. Now that's what I call a proper UMPC race :P
