A couple of extra sizes of the E-series Vaio range first announced in February have been shown off today: a more portable 14-incher and desktop-hog 17-incher. Both have Blu-ray drives and the 17-inch model has a Core i5 chip.
Full specs are listed below, so you can see the 14-inch VPC-EA1Z1E model has a Core i3 processor running at 2.13GHz, and the 17-inch VPC-EC1S1E has the mightier Core i5 running at 2.26GHz just like the 15-inch model which first debuted.
The 14-incher is the brightly-hued one that'd be better suited to extroverts, but at least the spec isn't bad, particularly with that Blu-ray drive. The screen itself is a 16:9 LED-backlit with 1600 x 900, which as you know isn't full-HD so you may be better off using that HDMI output and connect it to a TV instead.
The 17-incher has a full-HD screen with 1920 x 1080 res, and is the same 16:9 LED-backlit as the smaller model.
Both are available in the UK in May, with worldwide availability expected at some point.
DISCUSSION
Did they get rid of the FW? That was the only one I liked.
