Ha-ha, so you bought a UX180P and crying now! At least Barry Gerber (from Tomshardware) ’s friend seems to be. He bought a UX180P and he feels scammed that only a few months later Sony revealed “the real UX” , UX280P (UX180P with 1 GB RAM and 40 GB Hard Drive) with the same price tag.
What does Sony have to say about the short-lived UX180P and why it has disappeared from the market? Basically: We only made a small number of the UX180Ps. The UX280P is so much better. As a buyer of a UX180P, I’m not impressed by the excuse that Sony made only a small number of UX180Ps and is now selling the ‘real’ UX as the UX280P.
