Just so you know, Sony TR World quietly became 1 year old today. It’s been an amazing experience for me so far running this site and thanks to you members, the site has grown nicely and helped a lot of people and sold a lot of TRs for Sony.

As the year has progressed we’ve also started adding new sections for other cool notebooks and will probably continue to do so although the main focus will still be on ultraportables (and near ultraportables like the S series). Sadly, the TR is no more and the T has seemingly replaced it so we’ll just have to roll with the times. I suspect next year will see even better designs thanks to the new platforms coming out so it should be exciting.

This site will also undergo some changes as well to reflect the changes that are going on. So, look for that in the future…and don’t worry, you guys and gals will have lots of input on the direction.

I want to thank you members again for making this site a special place and making it what it is.

Best regards,
gr00vy0ne

Did the site actually go live on the 9th? Nobody else joined until the 15th…must have been a few boring days on here LOL

Anyway, congrats and thank you for making (and maintaining) a wonderful site.

Happy Birthday TR World and thanks gr00vy.

Thanks also to all the nice people who welcomed me here three months ago. It’s your fault I own a TR (and a zillion accessories). It’s been a pleasure getting to know you all.

Yeah, it actually went live on the 9th but no one signed up for a few days. I think they were testing the waters and a majority of the people were still going to the Yahoo groups site. In fact, there was some fair discussion at the Yahoo groups site about people complaining about moving over to here. Some claimed to like the Yahoo gorups format better…. :?:

It will also be my birthday on Monday…how exciting. You can all give me a birthday present by remembering to click on a Google ad at least once on that day.  LOL

Congrats on one year (already) and here’s to many more. I remember sigining up on the first day that the notice was posted on the Yahoo Group, and never went back to the awful layout of that place. This may eventually become “Sony World” with all of the Sony whores we have running around.  LOL

I’d hate to see TR World lose it’s focus. I’m good with subnotebooks and fringe dwellers. LOL

I think those of us with ultra portable machines have a traveling lite mentality. Besides this place is already taking up too much of my time. LOL

Any ideas or hints on the new site name since the TR is becoming discontinued?
