It is interesting to learn that over the last year we learn about some new product being released first outside of Japan, and it used to be that Japan would be the first one to announce that something really tasty is coming out and will or will not be available in other territories. I can remember back when Sony USA released Locationfree products and one particular model LF-X11 has not appeared at Sony Japan doors at least 6 months after it’s been marketed here. Some products never see the light of being released in Japan at all, like Sony’s Entertainment Server HES-V1000 which is really well done aesthetically but lacks some really major technicalities you would expect from a $3500 Blu-ray server.
Not to digress too much, Sony Japan announced its new T series and as always their web design that promotes it and any other kind of VAIOs really shines and stands out! The most striking about this new series is its amazing designs offered on the lids of VAIO TT. I guess VAIO Japan reserves that type of exclusivity as you will not be able to get it anywhere else in the world. Not only it offers three variations like you might see in your area where this VAIO is sold: Premium Carbon, Burgundy Red, Grace Gold and Silky Black, but also following the TZ fashion you will be amazed with the following offerings: Royal Ornament, Fragrant Flower and Noble Textile.
Simple awesomeness!
I also noticed a few other differences you might be interested to learn: Japanese version of these series will offer Sound Reality chip instead of Intel HD Audio, and this VAIO also comes with OneSeg TV tuner conveniently built-in.
Interesting addition is Sony is marketing this VAIO with noise canceling headphones, I am sure could be pretty handy when you travel especially by plane.
