In a world first, we've managed to get our hands on a review unit of Sony's stunningly thin ultraportable. Most surprisingly, it sports the newest Atom chip from Intel - the Z550 2.0GHz and GMA 500 graphics.

Not flawless, but Sony’s debut DSLR impresses with a 10.2-megapixel resolution and built-in anti-shake.

So, the last big name has fallen. HP gave out in April 2008, and both Dell and Toshiba's resistance crumbled by the autumn. But it's taken Sony until the middle of 2009 to produce what it confesses to be a netbook, the VAIO Mini W Series.

There is barely an area of consumer electronics that Sony does not have a hand in, and its contributions are seldom substandard in quality.

Sony’s new laptop sports a Blu-ray writer and one of Intel’s latest Penryn processors, but it’s overpriced.

The marker has been laid down. Sony's pulled off another AVCHD stunner that will be hard to beat this year

Sony's first CMOS based consumer HD camera brings control and fidelity to images in a package that's hard to beat.

Sony typically asks a little more than their competitors for similar products, but this usually pays off in the quality of workmanship and the reliability associated with most Sony products. The Sony VAIO VGN-S28GP is an extremely well-built notebook and should provide rock-solid performance for years to come.

Sony never lets you forget that it creates Personal Entertainment Organisers; Personal Data Assistants simply aren't trendy enough. But if you ignore the marketing, it rapidly becomes clear that the TJ35 is going head-to-head with the supposedly business-oriented Palm Tungsten E (January 2004, cover CD).

Sony is no doubt a technological behemoth, an innovative market leader in everything electrical, and fun. For Sony, digital photography is no exception, the DSC-S70 being the 3.3 megapixel entrant in the highly successful Cyber-shot range.

It’s gorgeous, but it can’t match Sony’s own Z-Series for sheer ultraportable excellence.

Great looks, superb build quality and a world beating software package. It would threaten the A list if it were just a little cheaper.

One beautiful camera, with one awful flaw.

Its one thing to flatter ones self but its another to be aware when its happening. Thats the impression I get when introduced to the Sony Vaio PCG-FX880K. Like the name?

The Sony HDR-XR200VE mini cam uses gyros to provide image stabilisation, and has an inbuilt GPS receiver

Dreaming of a super-skinny touchscreen compact for Christmas? For around $400, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T77 has finally convinced us touchscreen cameras are a good thing.

Beautifully designed with excellent battery life and generous features – but it’s expensive.

The A330 is a competent, fully featured and easy to use DSLR, but a backward step in some respects.

Sony’s Z-Series is an ultraportable to aspire to, even if there are a couple of areas where it could improve.

Where incremental steps forward are becoming commonplace, the Sony is a giant leap – simply stunning
