Help! - Small Laptop Search - Sony T1XP?

Jan 28, 2005 11:47PM PST

Hello! I'm from London; I need a laptop for when I'm on the move and I hate carrying round heavy hardware.

I have a Toshiba Tecra 8100 and was thinking of buying the Sony T1XP - since it is (in my limited knowledge) about the only laptop on the market of its size and weight. I always like to buy at the top end of the market and have always only bought Toshiba. Can anyone help and advise what to do? Does anyone own a T1XP? any ideas, please? Thanks.

I think in the US the above model is the T150. Anyone know when the new T91 is coming out? Thanks.

Sony T140

I have been using a Sony T140 for about a month and am very pleased with it. I do not know if this is comparable to the T1XP.

I bought it because of the small size and weight. Performance is great, and I have been pleasantly surprised by long battery life. I am able to run for several hours between charges. Wireless networking has been flawless. I have not experienced any problems to date.

The small keyboard and small display are not ideal for continuous computing work, but I don't need to do that kind of work while traveling.
