Not to mention more cost-cutting with the integrated graphics. Have they been paid off by Intel :-)

no flash HDD?

You obviously haven't tried one of the previous TX/T series... these babies are made for extralong battery life, hence no blueray drive and no discrete graphics which soak up too much energy. Just a shame the japanese option of a 32Gbit flash drive combined with the regular s-ata hdd / dvd drive is missing. Europe gets shafted once again...

Sony Style (www.sonystyle.co.uk) lists it with the 32 gig SSD disk as an available option.
