Sony Japan has done something quite unusual and released a Windows XP version of the Vaio P dubbed the VGN-P50. What’s even more curious is the special colors associated with these models, which look like exclusive SonyStyle Japan Owner Made colors. However, they are simply part of a Summer refresh. Featuring virtually the same specifications as the current Vaio P, the VGN-P50 has Windows XP SP3, and an Intel Atom Z520 chipset at 1.33ghz. Expect to see the same 8 inch screen at 1600×768, 1GB of RAM and an 80GB HDD. Wifi 802.11B/G/N, Bluetooth 2.1 are all supported, as well as DoCoMo’s WAN network. Even the WAN works during instant-on mode.
The new colors are known as Garnet Red, Crystal White, and Peridot, and Gold. Japanese consumers should expect to see this around June 6th for Y85,000 (about $900), with no availability mentioned outside of the motherland.
We can only assume that Japanese consumers were not satisfied with Vista on the Vaio P, hence this unexpected release. Make sure you click on the pictures below to see the high resolution image(s), which show off the cool prints.
