iWroteReview Comment:
- Z139 Blu-ray Disc™ ROM Drive can not write Bluray disc only read !
- i5-580M (2.66-3.33GHz) is faster than  i7-620M(2.66-3.33GHz) due to larger QPI
- All price are from Sony Hong Kong Website (Cheapest place to buy Vaio Z)
- All model weight vary from 1.39 - 1.44 Kg
- I select Z138 for the best model cause you get 8GB ram, 64x4GB SSD, FullHD Screen which is very expensive item and if you really want Bluray drive you can find alternative on ebay (uj-242) which can perform read&write only around $220
- More detail from sony site  click here
- All model number above is use only in asia zone due to Sony doesn't offer custom build to order like US or England.
