The specs leak on Sony Style last week indicated an LED-backlit screen, though that would hardly be a revolutionary new feature for small computers. Interesting that the long envelope image is still being used here. It's strange that Sony would push the whole "computer that fits into an ...

Rumor: Sony Vaio P to sell for just under $1000
Liliputing —
Sascha at Eee PC News has received a tip about the upcoming Vaio P subnotebook from Sony, and if his info is correct then it will be fairly safe to say this mini-laptop will not be a netbook in the traditional sense - becuse it will cost too much. Sascha reports that the Sony Vaio P will carry a 700 Euro price tag in Europe, which is about $975 at today’s exchange rate. And that’s about twice as much money as most netbooks on the market.
So what exactly will the Sony Vaio P have that sets it apart from other, cheaper ...
More VAIO P specs leak out
Engadget —
... HDD with optional SSD, GPS, and a 3G WWAN card, all for about €700 ($974). No word on that crazy rumored 1600 x 768 display resolution, but apparently that sexy Photoshopped VAIO TT pic we saw is close to the real thing, trackstick and all. We'll see -- for close to $1000, this guy had better run Vista a hell of a lot better than the similarly-spec'd ASUS R50A UMPC Portal just trashed in a review. [Via UMPC Portal, image from Pocketables] Filed under: Laptops More VAIO P specs leak out originally ...

Sony Vaio P specs leaked, this time with price
Tech Ticker —
... a tough time to keep the intrinsic details of its hyped Vaio P subnotebook under the wraps. The latest leak sheds some more details on the specifications of the device. The 1.33GHz Intel chip will be from the Atom family, precisely the Z520. The additions to the earlier report are 2GB RAM, GPS, 3G and a hefty price tag of 700 Euros or around $975. Yes, that’s expensive considering you can get its counterpart for less than half Vaio’s price.

Sony Vaio P deets begin to appear [jkOnTheRun]
GigaOM Network —
That mystery Sony Vaio we hit on recently is poised ready for announcement at CES next week. UMPC Portal has some sketchy information about the Vaio P that tends to create as many questions as it answers. According to those guys, the Vaio P has an Intel 1.33 GHz processor which makes one think it is the slow Atom processor. Not an auspicious beginning if true. They also report the P will come with 2 GB of RAM, a HDD (no capacity mentioned) or an optional SSD, GPS and UMTS. The information also implies the P will start at less ...
VAIO P specs continue to seep out of the Interwebs
CrunchGear —
... - €700 or $974 to be exact. A 3G WWAN card and GPS might sweeten the deal a bit more but for just under $1,000, you will be purchasing an 8-inch, Atom-powered notebook. Seems to be priced a tad over market. Then again, Apple’s netbook, the Air, starts at $1799 and it seems to be selling alright. Eh, Biggs?
Alright, so now where are some more pics? Those FCC and keyboard shots don’t cut it. Perhaps next week at CES ‘09? Maybe, maybe.
