Sony reveals its take on the ultrabook format with the VAIO T series-- a 17.8mm-thick model inside a brushed metal body, available in 11- or 13-inch options.
It carries an Intel Core i3 Sandy Bridge processor (no Ivy Bridge yet), 4GB RAM and integrated Intel HD 3000 graphics. Handling storage is either SSD or hybrid HDD-SSD.
Connectivity options include HDMI, VGA, RJ45, wifi, Bluetooth and SD/MMC media slot.
Sony says battery life (for SSD-only models, at least) reaches 9 hours, with an energy-efficient "deep sleep" mode storing data for up to 90 days.
