While Sony is about to release its first real netbook, the Sony Vaio W series, it is still trying to pull out some last straw for its Sony Vaio P mini notebook. Latest we heard is that Sony Japan is upgrading the Sony Vaio P to include a WiMAX option.
This may a good news for those who are still eyeing the Sony Vaio P even if the Sony Vaio W is already in the pipeline. But then the WiMAX option obviously comes with a price. To get this option, you need to add $108 to the current base price of the Sony Vaio P. So, how much do you think a WiMAX-enabled Sony Vaio P cost? Too expensive to mention perhaps.
In addition to the WiMAX option’s cost, users considering this new Sony Vaio P would also have to think of the subscription fee to the WiMAX service.
And what will get out of this additional features and cost? – internet speed of up to 12Mbps.
The Sony Vaio P with WiMAX option will be available for pre-order in Japan on the 27th of July and will be ship to brave souls on the 30th.
Any takers?
