Keyboard VGP-BPS13 and Touchpad
The SF510 features an island-style keyboard that's spacious and flex-free. Although Lenovo/IBM Thinkpad T410 Battery the key feel wasn't the best we've experienced, we were able to get to our normal typing speed right away. The only real VGP-BPS9/S trade-off for having a full keypad on the right side of the layout is a slightly shrunken right Shift key.

Open this laptop up VGP-BPS13A/B and you'll see that the raised edges of the wave create a shallow well for the keyboard on the VGP-BPS9/B chocolate-covered deck. We like that the deck is minimal--just a few silver buttons above the keyboard for controlling volume and Wi-Fi on the left VGP-BPS9A/B and the power button on the right.

The generous 3.8 x 2.4-inch clickpad on the SF510 VGP-BPS9 took some getting used to. It's not as finicky or difficult to use as HP's clickpads from last year, but it's not as effortless to use as those found on Apple's MacBooks. The left and right mouse button require a fair amount of precision, and you'll have VGP-BPS8 to be more mindful of your finger placement to avoid clicks that don't register.

Display, Audio, Multimedia
The glossy 15.6-inch, LED-backlit display's 1366 x 768 resolution is expected in this VGP-BPS8A price range. Overall, colors were bright, blacks deep, and pixels smooth in HD content, making for an enjoyable experience when watching videos or VGP-BPS2 working in Word. We just wish we didn't have to tilt the lid back to keep the image from washing out.

Despite these drawbacks, multitouch gestures were easy to execute, and cursor control was nice and VGP-BPS2A smooth.

Thanks to SRS Premium Sound, the SF510 produces excellent audio. The speakers VGP-BPS2B at the top of the deck pumped volume enough to fill a large living room at just 50 percent. We appreciated the decent bass when listening to "Telephone" VGP-BPS2C by Lady Gaga, and the SF510 even captured the cello's resonance in tracks from Zoe Keating's "Into the Trees."

Along with the Touch and the Daily Edition, Sony has updated its smallest eReader, the Pocket Edition, with touch VGP-BPS13A/Q capabilities and an improved E Ink screen. At $179, this 5-inch device is also the least expensive eReader in Sony's stable, and it's priced to compete with the VGP-BPS13/B Amazon Kindle 3G and the Barnes & Noble Nook. But is its touchscreen enough to make up for its lack of wireless VGP-BPS13B/B connectivity?

Streaming media is in this notebook's DNA, as the SF510 includes a couple of easy ways to play or send content to other VGP-BPS13B/Q devices. The DNLA-backed Easy Content Share utility makes it simple to set up file sharing and media streaming between devices--including VGP-BPS13A/S Galaxy S phones. Intel's Wireless Display is also built in, which allows users to stream content from the notebook to an HDTV. However, you'll VGP-BPS13/Q need to buy Netgear's Push2TV adapter ($79) to enjoy this feature

Design
Sony completely redesigned the Pocket Edition to match the look of the Touch and Daily Edition. Gone is the D-pad, VGP-BPS21A/B as well as the buttons along the right side of the 5-inch display. Now there are just five slim buttons beneath the display--Page back, Page forward, Home,VGP-BPS21/S Zoom, and Options--and the Pocket now has a touchscreen just like its larger siblings.

Though light, the Pocket feels solid due to its silver metal case,VGP-BPS21 while chrome-colored buttons on the front add a touch of elegance. The included stylus fits snugly in a port along the right edge. Sony wisely replaced the miniUSB jack on the bottom with a (more standard) microUSB jack. There's also no longer VGP-BPS21A a separate power port for the A/C adapter; the Pocket comes with an adapter for the USB cord.

Ivory and brown? Yes, and it works. The $629 Samsung SF510--a Best Buy exclusive--is a VGP-BPS21B budget-friendly laptop with plenty of flair. Armed with an Intel Core i3 CPU, this 15-inch notebook is an excellent choice for consumers looking for good battery something powerful enough for everyday computing in a curvy design that is anything but ho-hum.

Design
Not many ivory notebooks come through our labs, but the SF510 wears the color well. Although hp notebook akku the lid is glossy, it looks pretty elegant and it doesn't pick up fingerprints. The sides and bottom are also ivory, but they have a matte sony notebook akku finish. Wavy chrome accents line the right and left edges of the SF510, lending a bit of an edge to the machine when closed.

The 13.7 x 9.7 x 1.1-inch chassis is svelte for a 15-inch notebook. At 5.4 pounds, the SF510 is a little too heavy to asus notebook akku carry around often, but it's easy to shuttle from room to room.

Unlike the Touch and Daily Editions, the Pocket has no memory card slots or headphone jack lining fujitsu notebook akku the top and bottom edges. Users will have to settle for the 2GB of internal memory, which can hold thousands of eBooks.

At 5.7 x 4.1 x 0.33 inches, the Pocket Edition is one toshiba notebook akku of the smallest eReaders on the market. Weighing just 5.5 ounces, it's more than three ounces lighter than the Kindle 3G (8.7 ounces). One could fit it snugly into a rear pants pocket, though we wouldn't advise putting it there. A better place dell notebook akku would be an inside jacket or coat pocket, or the side pocket of a purse or bag.

The on-screen keyboard lags a little when typing, but not as much as the previous generation. acer battery We managed to type quite fast with the stylus and our fingers

While PC makers initially targeted laptops with 3D apple battery displays and glasses at gamers, Acer is hoping to widen their appeal to all sorts of entertainment seekers. Priced at $999, the Aspire 5745DG is the least expensive 3D notebook we've tested that uses Nvidia's impressive 3D Vision technology. Powered by ibm battery a Core i5 processor, this 15.6-inch system can also output 3D content to a compatible TV via its HDMI connection. So is this multimedia machine hp battery really a bargain?

Display
The Sony Readers utilize high-contrast E Ink sony battery Pearl displays, the same technology used in the second-gen Kindle DX and the Kindle 3G. To facilitate touch functionality, there are IR sensors around the edge of the screen that detect and track movement, be it a user's finger or the stylus. As a result, the asus battery Pocket Edition's display is bright and crisp. In a side-by-side comparison with the Kindle 3G, text on the Pocket Edition looked crisper, though the Kindle has slightly fujitsu battery deeper contrast. The bigger drawback is the Pocket's lack of font choice. While the Kindle has three available fonts, the Sony eReader toshiba battery has just one.

Overall, the Pocket Edition's touchscreen worked well. The only time we encountered an issue was when working with handwritten dell battery notes either in the Memo app or within books. There was minute but discernible lag as we scribbled with the included stylus, with the thin mark appearing acer laptop battery milliseconds behind the tip. When we made slower, more deliberate marks, the Pocket was able to keep up.
