Just bought the Vaio Pro 13 (i7 version) ... loving every bit of it ... the high res screen is to die for .... stock have arrived on Wednesday and you can walk into any Sony Center to purchase one (Curve/KLCC) ...

If you ask me ... get the 13 inch ... you get the same resolution for the 11/13 inch Pro .... you practically have to upscale the font to use the notebook properly .... imagine if you have the 11 inch version ... eyes will pop out trying to read the small text

Hi Sookk,
Seems like you are a happy customer of vaio pro 13. How's its performance? I'm very interested to get 1, but now holding on because report in sony community site that some have wifi issue. Betul?

Let me tackle this question from all perspective:


3. Wifi problem

What WIFI problem? So far performance has been rock solid. I suggest you download the latest Intel drivers from Intel support website.


However, I would suggest you go to the store and play around with it first before making a decision .. besides ... it's your money

Hi Sookk,
On your point 3, how far away are you from your router and any walls in between?

Have you tried to bring your SVP to say 15m away from your router and see
1) any dropout/disconnection?
2) slower in internet speed?

I'm particularly eager to find out this item as this can be my only deal breaker.

Cheers
Peter C

There was never any case of disconnection. I have tried using the device about 20 meters away with 2 brick wall in the way .... Still no problems with the wifi. Not sure why some people are having problems with the wifi .... However, I suspect perhaps they type of router might be a crucial point. I have used it with dlink, aztech, 3com and Cisco without problems.

At home I sit about 10 meters away .... Also on different floors .... No issues

As you can see ... both of the top 2 are my wireless AP ... both showing great signal strength
