In addition, the unit also comes built-in with noise-cancelling functions (through dedicated headphones), and sports energy-saving technologies such as an ambient light sensor and quick charge battery function.
Sony Australia’s Channel Manager for Vaio, Jun Yoon said, “VAIO has a proud tradition of releasing world first technologies and the VAIO TT series notebook is another chapter in this impressive story of innovation. We have built a reputation on the quality of our workmanship and technology development, and Blu-ray coupled with our LCD display quality and audio-visual features continue our leadership in high definition innovation. Combined with the stylish CS and three new AV/IT-focused PCs, this is the most exciting blend of entertainment and technology yet.”

The new CS series of notebooks is an ‘intelligent’ notebook that lights up with your touch. A full colour LED and new touch sensor mean the CS responds when you touch its cover.
A Vaio software that ‘uses powerful built-in intelligence to organise your digital world creatively for maximum enjoyment’ is also included in this range, which automatically categorises entire music collections, adds special effects to your slides shows, and even gives you a soundtrack for every part of the day with its ‘Vaio MusicBox.’
