Sony Vaio TT Crimson RedIf lightweight laptops with lightweight specs are getting you down, Sony has the antidote. The Vaio TT is a fully loaded machine yet only tips the scales at a smidgen (that's a technical term for 37g) over a kilogram.

Inside the typically Vaio-esque carbon-fibre case is not only an optional Blu-Ray player (making it the world's lightest Blu-Ray laptop) but also space for a whopping 256GB of solid state memory in two 128GB SSDs. Read on, chums.

The 720p capable LED-backlit screen has a 16:9 aspect ratio for movie watching - although at just 11.1in we think we'll be making more use of the built-in HDMI port that can output 1080p to a waiting HD-Ready TV.

The whole thing's powered by an Intel Centrino 2 processor and is available in Carbon Black, Silk Black, Champagne Gold, or Crimson Red.

Just the small matter of the price left, then. Starting price is $2000 in the States rising to $3000+ once you start adding Blu-Ray and SSD options. Ouch.
