Micorsoft Windows Vista®
in the palm of your hand.

Enjoy a complete notebook experience without compromise. Small in size but big on functionality, the Pocket-Style PC delivers the same convenient features you’re used to, but with go-anywhere style. A Windows Vista® operating system supports all the software programs you already use: Microsoft Office applications, music programs, video players and more.

Intel's Smallest Processor

The Intel's smallest processor, built with the world's smallest transistors and manufactured on Intel's industry-leading 45nm Hi-k Metal Gate technology. Intel smallest processor-based notebooks offer both an easy-to-use mobile device with simple interfaces and targeted performance for a good online experience. They are rugged and compact in design, and offer the freedom and flexibility of wireless connectivity.

2GB of Pre-installed System Memory

The P Series notebook comes embedded with 2GB of pre-installed memory to maximize all your applications and needs. Run the most intensive programs and still have the capacity to complete the most urgent of your tasks. Your VAIO notebook is the ideal machine for all your multimedia needs.

G-Sensor™ Shock Protection Technology

G-Sensor Shock Protection Technology makes your data even less vulnerable to loss or damage. When the built-in 3D acceleration sensor detects a risky movement, the HDD-head will lock up to secure its position and help protect the disc from scratching. An intelligent algorithm, unique to VAIO PCs, judges whether or not a movement is risky, activating disk drive protection only when your hardware is at risk.

Stunning Widescreen, Smart Display.

Keep moving and stop waiting. The instant-on, ultra-bright 8-inch3 LED-backlit screen of the Pocket-Style PC means you never have to wait for it to warm up. Plus, its extra-wide 1600 x 768 resolution easily displays the width of an entire page, putting an end to side-to-side scrolling that can slow you down.

A Wireless Wonder.

Extend the reach of your VAIO Pocket-Style PC with A2DP Bluetooth® technology that's ideal for streaming uncompromised CD-quality stereo music to Bluetooth® technology enabled speakers or headphones.


Face-to-face fun.

Getting your point across has never been easier. The Pocket-Style PC features a built-in MOTION EYE® webcam and microphone that lets you quickly snap photos and video chat with friends and family.

Longer battery life

Capitalizing on energy-efficient Intel smallest processor technology and an LED backlit display, the P notebook can blaze through your workload and entertainment for hours. With up to 4 hours of standard battery power, it's an ideal mobile counterpart when you're on the go.


Just Your Type.

The Pocket-Style PC's keyboard is precisely engineered to maximize the typing area with ingeniously-spaced keys for both long fingernails and large hands.

Organization Made Easy.

When you have more than a few documents or web pages open at once, your screen can get a little chaotic. But thanks to a special window arrangement utility, you can organize them all with one simple touch. Press a button and watch as all your open windows are presented side-by-side on a single screen, cutting clutter and giving you a fresh perspective on your workspace.
