No, it's a very new machine I am talking about,just released, the name escapes me, but look for hp with the new amd ultra mobile core (bobcat codename but they aren't using it officialy). I agree with you, it does look good, but to market it as a "revolution" is nothing short of a joke. Plus, and most importantly it runs vista, this by itself ruins the deal. If they want to be taken seriously sony they should go the apple way and get some linux codebase and an os of their own on top, having vista, or windows 7, or whatever crap from redmond is to a lot of people nowadays a spoiler to the deal.

Btw, that trackstick in the middle they have that reminds me of one of my first toshiba lappies ten years ago, is so, so sweet, the trackbad caught on, but this was the much better implementation for sure (lenovo and someothers still carry it), nice to see it making a come back for reasons of space. But as soon as I see that awful black vista toolbar...I cringe immediately....like I said, you wanna sell a netbook for $1000, make your own os sony.
