lightweight and thin

This Lenovo Yoga 2 Pro is one of the best Ultrabook on its price range. I've been using this Y2P for 2 weeks now and never encounter any major problem. The only downside of this product is the display. When the brightness turned down to low, about 20%, the display starts to flicker. I've done every set-up for the display like the auto-brightness, power saving, etc. and still never get through with this problem. It only happens if I turn down the brightness to low. I've read a topic in Lenovo forum and that's really the common problem of this device. I'm still waiting for the solution. Other than that everything works well.
My Best Buy number: 2507212764
What's great about it: weight, processor, memory, design
What's not so great: price, flickering display when dimmed
I would recommend this to a friend!

one of the best recorder I've ever had.

Posted by: dimewolf

I got this camera last month in Best Buy Pasadena. I remembered that this was the last Sony recoder on the gadget stand that day so I'm lucky to have this great recorder. This Sony Recorder ICD-PX820 has 2GB of storage which you can record audio with it for long hours. It also doesn't consumes a lot of power on your battery. I tried recording a full 8 hours straight in a high quality audio and the battery is not yet drain-out. So I tried to use it again the next day and there's still power on the battery. It's powered by (2)AAA batteries and has many great features in it. It comes with a Manual booklet, a USB cord, (2)AAA batteries and a CD installer software which you really don't need because this is a plug and play device. The Audio file is in MP3 format. You can also transfer MP3 songs in it. It has a 2 input on the top which you can plug an additional microphone and an input of headphone.
It has a simple design and the size makes it easy to bring anywhere. you can carry it on your pocket. It's actually quite bit smaller than your regular cellphone. It is easy and reliable to use. I really like this recorder and I highly recommend this product to everyone.
What's great about it: size, audio quality, price, storage size, simple style, can use in long hours
What's not so great: nothing

Small Notebook with DVD drive

I want a small notebook that can also play DVD's for my son. Sort of an upgrade from a DVD player - so we can also use the computer to check email and play simple games on vacation. Oh, and I don't want to spend much. Any suggestions?
i would recommend 2 good small laptops for your son. HP dv2-1030us ($479.99) & HP dv2-1039wm ($499.99). This two have 12.1" LCD monitor and DVD player and burner.

Notebook/Laptop and Netbook are not very much the same. Netbooks usually don't have DVD drives and sometimes have a smaller LCD of 10" there are sometimes Netbooks that have 12.1" LCD monitor.

where sony vaio laptop made from?

i whant to check quality of sony vaio laptops sold in best buy
AFAIK, the TX, UX, and premium SZ series are all made in Japan. The FS was made in China, and the CTOs are made in USA. Some models (FJ?) that are made in China become made in Japan if you ordered and CTO'ed in Japan.

This is based on the label on the bottom of the laptop, not specifically the components.

I don't know about the other series.

When will Best Buy be getting this Sony Model: VPCCW23FX/B | SKU: 9723824 back in stock?

No it will not be available again in bestbuy stores. This is what I noticed in bestbuy. Once they make the product "just available online" it means the product will be change soon or they will going soon remove it from the list of products and change it to some new products with new prices and specs. So if it is still available online, get it or it might soon be gone away. the shipping is only 14.99 so its not bad to sacrifice a couple of dollars to get your ideal laptop.
