Sony offers the Vaio VGN-P688 laptop which weighs just 600g, and enter easil
y into the pocket … almost. The laptop computer is about the size of a DL size envelope (11×22 cm) and also slim like mobile phone. This is one of the few laptop computers that goes into a purse or a jacket pocket. It has been designed so that each can use the laptop computer whenever and wherever we want.
he keyboard is very compact and if you are not used to typing on such a small keyboard, the first few times are going to be really frustrating. If you plan on using this mini laptop a lot of hours per day or as your primary computer, you may want to attach an external keyboard. The touchpad… Is gone. This little Sony VAIO uses a trackpoint pointing device which is easy to use and quite sensitive as well. The left and right touchpoint buttons are place right beneath the space bar and they offer good feedback.
The 8 inch display of this mini laptop comes in an incredible native resolution of 1600 x 768 pixels. Small texts are, therefore, quite difficult to read but Sony has integrated a zoom tool which could make your life a lot easier. The horizontal angles are good although it will be difficult to watch a movie together with more than just one person. In general, the selection of ports and features is never too good on a laptop which is as small as the Sony VAIO P. this unit hosts 2 USB ports, one security lock slot, a memory stick card slot, a SD/SDHC card slot, one expansion port and the headphones jack.
