Sony Vaio Pocket leaked — hope you have cargo pants

December 25th, 2008

Rumblings the past few days had Sony getting ready to unveil its first entry into the currently hot netbook category of computers. Netbooks are small, low-weight and low cost laptops that, while not as powerful as their bigger counterparts, can handle things like surfing the web just fine. The leaked specs for Sony’s Vaio Pocket, as it’s to be called, are calling into question whether this thing will be cheap at all.

The specs, according to Sony Style’s own site, have the Vaio Pocket coming with a 1.33Ghz processor (though it’s not clear what kind of chip it will be - but Gizmodo guesses an Intel Atom), an 8-inch LED backlit display, the option of either a 60GB standard hard drive or a 128GB solid state drive and the option to have either Windows Vista Home Basic or Home Premium installed.
