Sony just can't help itself from running on a constant treadmill of new product releases. Blink once and Sony will have a new notebook or PDA out replacing the one released just yesterday. Or at least it seems that way sometimes. Anyway, the latest new notebook from Sony is the VAIO K Series. The K series comprises three models: the PCG-K13, 15 and 17. All of them provide integrated 802.11b/g WLAN connectivity. Designed as desktop replacements, the Ks are based on Mobile Pentium 4 processors - 2.8GHz for the K15 and 3.06GHz for the K17 - running a 533MHz effective bit rate frontside bus.
The pricing ranges from $1399 to $1899. The top of the line K17 notebook carries the following description: on SonyStyle.com
