Wide Wide Screen ... Is this for real





Checkout the following images. This amazing flat screen was in one of the videos shown at the Asia MVP Regional Summit couple of months back. It was one of the coolest things I saw at the Summit. I'm sure that the folks who was @ the Summit are familiar of this cool screen.
I have been searching for more info on this for a long time. After searching a lot found these images :) If any one got more info about this please send me.




Imagine your screen is this wide. How cool that would be. I better start saving some money to get one of these (if it is for real) as soon as it comes out.

Today Sony announces the launch of its new ultra portable PC, the VAIO UX1. This compact, light PC fits comfortably into your hands but is packed full with features so you can watch movies, listen to music and view photos wherever you are.




The VGN-UX1XN has 1GB of memory and the latest Intel® Ultra-Low Voltage processor with Windows Vista™ Business. Its sleek design and premium all-black finish make this a stunning gadget that you will want to be seen with. Sliding the screen up reveals a keyboard for text entry, or you can opt for stylus or touch-screen operation.





Introducing the future of portable computing, the VGN-UX1XN, an ultra-mobile PC from Sony VAIO. This stylish, compact unit fits comfortably into your hands* and is extremely light at just 480g. Yet it packs a real punch, with a full 1GB of memory and the latest Intel® Ultra-Low Voltage processor providing the power to run Windows Vista™ Business for better networking, file sharing and multi-media capabilities. It’s the perfect way to enjoy real PC functionality, watch movies, listen to music and view photos wherever you are.
Whether you want to work or play on the move, the VAIO UX1 extends your reach. Integrated high-speed WiFi lets you take full advantage of wireless hotspots and networks for email and web access. Sliding the screen up reveals a keyboard for text entry, or you can opt for stylus or touch-screen operation depending on what suits you best at the time. The 4.5-inch widescreen display is visually enhanced with contrast boosting X-black LCD™ and brightly illuminated by LED technology for the crispest screen you have ever seen. What’s more there is a blue keyboard backlight, ideal for use in poor light.
There are even two integrated cameras – one for video chat, with the option of a Bluetooth headset, the other at the back for taking pictures. If you want to update and illustrate your blog as you live it, the UX1 gives you everything you need.
Instead of a hard disk, the UX1 comes with 32GB of flash memory. This has many advantages; for example everything is faster, applications and files load extremely quickly, and general operation is more responsive. Flash memory is also immune to problems caused by vibration and shock. It even uses less power than a hard disk, boosting an average battery life to over four hours of continuous operation.
