Sony VAIO TZ190N/B

The luxuriously sleek and ultra-portable VAIO TZ notebook boasts an incredibly small and lightweight form-factor that features an especially robust carbon-fiber casing for enhanced durability. This best-in-class PC weighs only 2.7 lbs with standard battery, is less than 1" thin and features an incredible 4 to 7.5 hours of standard battery life. The VAIO TZ notebook features an 11.1" WXGA widescreen display with Sony's original XBRITE-HiColor LCD technology with white LED backlight. Sony's innovative backlight technology offers lower power consumption for improved battery life and provides incredibly high brightness levels, amplifying colors and creating clear, crisp pictures that truly "pop" off the LCD. The result: an amazing 72% color saturation for deeper blacks, brighter whites, true-to-life color and razor-sharp detail. And, with the anti-reflective coating to minimize reflection while providing a wide viewing angle, you'll enjoy a beautifully clear image from almost any angle. It's the ideal way to present your work or watch a DVD when you're on the go. Fingerprint biometrics is a convenient and secure way to protect your computer and the information on it with a simple swipe of your finger. It also stores passwords to websites you visit, so authentication and access are quick and easy, you only need your fingerprint. The VAIO TZ notebook features a thoughtfully redesigned keyboard that showcases an extreme attention to detail. Designed for ease of use and a smart, sophisticated look, the individual keys are slightly raised, producing a user-friendly touch and feel to the keyboard that creates an improved typing experience. In addition, an extra support layer has been added below the bezel to increase the structural integrity of the keyboard and add stability to the keys, giving them an unwavering up-down motion and making for quieter typing. Details like these not only enhance the look and feel of the TZ notebook, but also reveal the design intelligence and innovation that only Sony can offer. Weighing in at only 2.7lbs with standard battery, the stylish VAIO TZ notebook features an improved lightweight and especially robust carbon-fiber casing. From the top of the LCD cover, which features an added thickness of 0.2mm, to the bottom of the unit, including the edges, the carbon-fiber casing provides superior protection against impact shocks and torqued movements. Carbon fiber, the same material used on jets and sports cars to keep them lightweight yet sturdy, is much stronger than the magnesium used on standard notebooks. Built with the rigors of the road in mind, the VAIO TZ notebook will keep you up and running trouble-free. G-Sensor Shock Protection makes your data even less vulnerable to loss or damage. When the built-in 3D acceleration sensor detects a risky movement, the HDD-head will lock up to secure its position and reduce the risk of damage from scratching. Perfect for long flights where extended battery life is a necessity, the VAIO TZ notebook's ingenious Instant Mode allows you to go straight to watching a movie, playing music or viewing photos at the touch of a button, without having to boot-up the operating system. And with the convenient A/V control buttons located in the front of the unit for easy operation from a reclined viewing position, you can stop, play, fast forward, reverse and eject with one-touch simplicity. To complement these features, an 11.1" WXGA widescreen display with Sony's original XBRITE-HiColor LCD technology lets you watch movies and DVDs with stunning clarity in the intended aspect ratio for theatrical presentation.
