41You know how the Sony Vaio W is expected to sell for around 6 in Australia, while it has a list price of just 9 in the US? Yeah, apparently Australia isn’t the only region getting the short end of the stick. Yugatech reports that the netbook will sell for Php39,990 in the Philippines. That’s about 5 US.
Even in the US, the Sony Vaio W seems a bit overpriced. Sure, it has a decent looking keyboard and a high resolution 1366 x 768 pixel display. But that 9 price tag is for the netbook with a 3 cell, 2.5 hour battery. You can find plenty of netbooks with 5 hour or longer batteries for under 0. But I have to say, 9 still seems a lot better than the prices Sony is charging in other areas.
