Although “green” technology is often used as marketing phrase, as a legitimate way to save the planet, he is undoubtedly an increasingly important part of the focus on consumer electronics in the future. Among the products which will be every year, and the extent to which so many of them are considered “disposable”, early production could be both more energy efficient and made of safe, recycled, the better.

So, right off the bat, we are happy Sony Vaio VPC-Eco W212AX. While largely the same Vaio W Netbook we reviewed earlier (more on that in a bit), Opal chassis Echo is 20 percent recycled CD and DVD cases, and it comes with a suitcase made from recycled soda bottles containing PET plastic. The book has been digitized paper instruction, leaving only a small quick-start pamphlet, tucked into an attractive and useful action.

Even better, Vaio VPC-Eco W212AX does not even come packaged in a box: it is packed inside the laptop case itself, which is a brilliant decision. Disclaimers supplied and providing free case in one fell swoop, is a step we would be happy to see all manufacturers of portable gadgets to take. And, to credit, Sony, Vaio W series Echo is not any more expensive than the existing line of W, and looks very attractive with its almost iridescent finish. From an environmental point of view, W Echo series thumbs up.

From the viewpoint of Netbook, Vaio W-still expensive ultraportables Atom. Starting at $ 480, Vaio Eco VPC-W212AX comes with the new N450 Atom processor and hard drive 250 GB, but so do a lot of new netbooks, and often at lower prices, although this edition of Echo series with extended specifications come in at $ 20 less than the original Vaio W we reviewed. It’s Vaio W has a higher resolution 10.1-inch screen than many other competitors, but you have to decide for themselves whether the premium price Netbook for you, despite environmental concerns. In any case, this is the direction we would like to see all the laptops to take in the future.
