UQ Communications and Sony Japan are currently working on bringing the WiMax technology to the Vaio P. UQ WiMax is only available in Japan, so a WiMax Sony Vaio P will be limited to Japan only. The companies are working on getting WiMax built into the Pocketable notebook. Currently there’s no estimated release date, or even a time frame yet, but we’ll keep you informed of any updates.

Likewise, also only in Japan, the Sony Vaio P has been fitted with the latest and fastest Atom processor, the 2GHz Z550. A forum member of Pocketables has already got hold of the latest upgraded Vaio P and bench marked it. The Vaio P has previously been benchmarked with the prior options. The results are almost twice as much compared to the entry level Vaio. It seems that it’s still the SSD which makes the most impact.
