You know how the Sony Vaio W is expected to sell for around $ 776 in Australia, while it has a list price of only $ 499 in the U.S.? Yes, Australia is apparently not the only region to the short end of the stick. Yugatech reported that the Netbook will sell for Php39, 990 in the Philippines. That is about $ 835 U.S..

Even in the U.S., the Sony Vaio W seems a little overpriced. Sure, it has a decent keyboard and a high resolution 1366 x 768 pixel display. But the $ 499 price for the Netbook is equipped with a 3-cell battery is 2.5 hours. Here you will find many Netbook with 5 hours or more batteries for under $ 400. But I must say that $ 499 still seems a lot better than the prices of Sony is loaded in other areas.
