    i would say it’s basically UX90, not UX50. UX50 had only celeron 1.06 processor as far as i know.

    Also, i’m still confusing about video accelerator name. Everywhere for UX180/UX90/UX17 written that intel 950, but driver tells that intel 945. where is true? I have UX17TP (Tawanese version).

    Yes, you are right. It’s more of a UX90. It has been fixed. Thanks.

    HI all,

    I ordered one from a local department store. I will post a review when I get it. It will take 4 weeks for the order to arrive.

    cheers,

    Is someone able to verify something for me please….
    The specs listed here for the port replictor specify that it has 1 USB port, however, the specs on the Sony web site are conflicting. On the main specs page it says that the port replicator has one USB but in the 3D section there is another Specifications page and it states that there are 3 USB ports. Which is it?

    Thanks,
    Jodi

    picked mine up on the 9th of August. love it. Wish it had tablet OS. Picked up in a retail store in Sydney for A$2370. Don’t kn ow why you would have to wait 4 weeks.

    the unit hnas one USB. The port replicator has three more. The replicator a;so has firewire, ethernet, vga andm0nitor out. The pen and portable stand are a joke. The replicator and dongle are brilliant,
