i bought this recently after looking for quite sometimes.
I am writing this bec there are not many review out thr ...
Here i can list good things and bad things..

Good things first:
1> Nice design,looks like macbook (white one),i bought mainly bec of that..!!
2> Very nice keyboard ,some keys are missing for like Hibernate, etc..but you can configure .not a big deal.
3>Built in sony softwares..bluetooth/i3, light weight
4>came in 3 days...great
5>direct web button

things i didn't like:
1> Bad screen, sony one of the creator of LCD tv,how can they do like this kind of screens.My 4 year old Dell inspiron looks better.
2> No volume control buttons, you got seperate button for web!!...

3>web cam,crappy, may be 1$ worth,sony couldn't find any better camera.

4> Battery sucks,its been few weeks,battery already not crossing 2 hrs!!!

5>WIFI stopped working few times. it won't connect at all all of sudden, if you don't restart it won't work.Wifi button is ON only,i know all these configs. But my Dell works without any issues.So got to be some issues,let me try to find some pattern.

6> eventhough got 4 GB RAM and I3, its not fast,if you open chrome it takes few seconds come up

bottom line..its ok if you get it for 650 or 699!!! not more than that..

Update: i was mentioning about WIFI issue, its actually a issue . Intel Centrino drivers settings issue.Need to call Sony help desk to fix it. Its a known issue!!. OR latest driver update + power settings change.

Got it as a gift for my GF, and I love it. Haven't opened it yet but it couldn't be wrong. Go for it!
