Sony’s VAIO M is the official successor to VAIO W – its sibling which made its debut earlier this month. Sony VAIO M has replaced the dummy chiclet keys of VAIO W with a conventional keyboard styling and design.

The Sony VAIO M is shipping with a 250GB hard drive as against 160 GB shipped with the Sony VAIO W.
