Just got word of this (I’ve been out of the TR loop for quite a while now)—I think the T-series looks decent - the thinner design is nice (as the TR is a bit pudgy), but overall the TR is a much more futuristic and attractive design.  The new T is a sleeker but duller TR, minus the beloved webcam (I never actually used it for any real purpose on my C1VN, but it’s cool and draws attention :D).

And what’s up with the battery?  Is the extension in the back part of the standard capacity battery or is it like the double battery on the 505’s/C1’s?  If it’s the standard one then :shock:.

Actually it’s kind of funny - a friend emailed me a link about these new Vaio’s:

I read their description of the T1, and I was like 733 Mhz???  WTF?!  They underclocked a Pentium M?  Then I went and looked around for more info and I was like lol - what a bunch of idiots.  P-M 733 1.1= 733 Mhz lol

It seems to be the standard…the only one offered.

Yeah, I noticed that with the extended battery for the TR.  Didn’t bother me that much.  But, didn’t want to pay $300 on another battery if this one isn’t broke.  If you know what I mean

If the ‘T’ series comes stock with the extended battery, then are the battery times better than the TR’s standard battery.  Is it the BP3T?

I think it might be.  I think I remember someone saying that it did….
