First Look at Sony's Tiny Vaio UX180p

An anonymous reader writes "MobileTechReview has posted a first look at the Sony Vaio UX180P Micro PC and comparison of it with UMPC and OQO. "When I first heard about the Sony UX series, I nearly dismissed it because I just couldn't imagine that 1024 x 600 on a 4.5" screen could ever be readable. Yes, the price is certainly another issue-- consumers don't flock to spend twice as much on a "notebook" that's less than half the size of a standard ultralight. At least not in the SUV-lovin' US. Well, happily I was wrong. That tiny XBRITE display is easily readable, despite the number of pixels squeezed into close company""

  1. IBM T221 by Trouvist · · Score: 1, Offtopic

    Apparently no one here has ever heard of the IBM T221. Maximum resolution was 3840 x 2400, 32 bit color @ 13 hz.... it was only a 21" screen... Let's just say you haven't ever written a line of code until you can readably fit more than 100 lines onto the same editor view.
