Sony Continous to Tease Us with the Vaio “Netbook”

Following our report about the placeholder at the Sony site for a new lightweight VAIO netbook or notebook which eventually vanished after a couple of days, here we now some new teasers regarding the said new Sony Vaio machine.
UMPC Portal posted about this new teaser somewhere in Hong Kong about a new Vaio laptop. The teaser (see image) was hinting on a lightweight Vaio unit with reference to an envelope. Although it may seem an outright attack on Apple’s MacBook air, we couldn’t help but wonder how Sony is going to market this rumored machine. As a MacBook Air rival or a netbook entrant?
Anyway, Netbooknews.de managed to get some more specs of the new Sony Vaio from a reliable sources. These specs include, 1.33GHz Intel Atom Z250 CPU, 2GB RAM, HDD with optional SSD, GPS and UMTS. This mysterious Sony Vaio is expected to retail for around $970!
