Details of the Sony TT lineup have been seeping onto the Interwebs for the last few days, but ultra-mobile laptops are finally official from Sony. There aren’t many surprises after the spec sheet was found yesterday, but the addition of a 256 GB SSD (128×2 RAID) and Sprint EV-DO mobile broadband options are more than welcome additions. Plus, all these goodies come in a laptop thiner than an inch – less than two DVD cases – and only weighs 2.87lbs. Prices for the black, red or champagne gold laptops start around $2000 and can climb up to $2,700 for the Blu-ray burner option or $2,750 for the SSD-equipped model when they become available this Fall.
