Sony VAIO VGN-UX280P UMPC
The Sony VAIO VGN-UX280P UMPC is so small and lightweight you won’t believe it’s a full-functioning PC. But this remarkably compact dynamo is designed for productivity on the go. With a 4.5” wide SVGA (1024×600) display with XBRITE™ LCD technology, Intel® Core™ Solo Ultra Low Voltage CPU for fast processing, and Microsoft® XP Professional operating system (OS) on board. And because this is a full-functioning PC using the OS you already know, application user interfaces are familiar and easy to use. Advanced Wireless capabilities are built right in, and expansion is a breeze with the included port replicator.

A Truly Mobile Wireless Companion.
True mobility is about broad access, just as much as it is about slim, lightweight design. And the Sony VAIO VGN-UX280P UMPC is taking that access farther than ever before. With integrated wireless Wide Area Network (WAN) technology, you can access the AT&T Wireless National EDGE network to extend your wireless coverage beyond LAN access networks and hotspots. And with integrated wireless LAN and Bluetooth® technology, the Sony VAIO VGN-UX280P UMPC gives you the freedom to go farther, do more, and stay connected.

Communication On The Go.
The Sony VAIO VGN-UX280P UMPC is communications-ready, with integrated camera and built-in microphone and speakers, so you’re equipped to communicate via VoIP virtually anywhere WLAN or WWAN service is available.

Ingenious Design.
An integrated keyboard and stylus allow you to choose the input method you prefer. VAIO® Touch Launcher and Instant Command enable quick and easy program access, and the biometric fingerprint sensor stores your passwords so you can access applications and secure web sites without having to type them. And the Sony VAIO VGN-UX280P UMPC really makes smart use of all its display space. With control buttons for zooming, scrolling, and a stick pointer, as well as the ability to view in either landscape or portrait orientations, you know you’ll be able to view documents, applications, and media in the most appropriate way.
