just back from PC fair @KLCC...
bought white EA Series .. for my wife.
free gifts :
- Vaio Bag pack,
- WD 320gb 2.5" Ext HDD,
- 8GB kingston thumb drive
- SEW extend 1 year
- and 18 cheap laptop items
i thought can get Vaio Mouse, but they said already gave lot of gifts...
haha..

Kinda good offer now .. wow !

Sucks. Vaio Z not part of PC Fair.

Anyway, wouldn't want to look at laptops now since most laptops look like crap.

i just bought sony vaio sb which you need to unscrew the cover to take out the battery....

i found there is one feature called vaio battery care function which you can set % of charge...

does it really uncharge the after hit the % you set or will make the battery last longer like we take out the battery?

It will stop charging. The most concern here is the heat generate by the notebook which would affect the battery lifespan (depend on where you place the notebook). The battery best to keep it cool and if possible avoid of any massive heat.

Since the batt are screw into the notebook, maybe you can try run some program that utilize the cpu and gpu process. Observe the heat spread. If its until the battery, better to plug it out if only you working with program that require fully cpu and gpu process all the time.

Just my 2cents.

Well I can safely say battery is away from the heat epicentre for the SB series. It is nearest to the user, immediately below the palm rest and touchpad. The heat from HDD, RAM, CPU and GPU is drawn towards the back, under the LCD. So the heat not affect the battery much I think. Cos I played Crysis 2 and the aluminium only got warm, and most heat is at the back, and VAIO is doing good job cooling. But I do use a CoolerMaster, so maybe it helps too.

On another matter, anyone else thinks that the touchpad "sucks" a bit compared to CW series? My friend's CW touchpad is a very nice to use.

Yesterday enter Sony Style in The Curve. I like the feeling of SB 19 ... awww so nice ... but price also nice .. RM 6,399

Question about the sb series...last time i heard about the loud fan issue...is it still like that?
