Good Points
easy set-up and use, the 3-d effect is quite good but not somthing that would make it a reason to purchase. has a good spead and easy to connect to the internet.
Bad Points
The Keyboard is a little floppy but does not detract from its use, I think the most anoying of all is the software that sony include (all trial for limeted period) keeps popping up with great persistance. The machine is very heavy.
Battery life is poor
