They'd shown it in Gadget Guru on NDTV Profit a month ago. It is available in india. Its there on Sony India website with the price. It really looked stunning on tv. And its not just beauty but its got brawn too. Sony is really making some innovative and sexy looking laptops nowadays. Only thing is that they're expensive.

Saw it weeks back in Sony World. Really nice looks. But not useful for ppl who wanna carry their laptop everywhere. Its heavy.

Its neither exactly a laptop or a desktop but rather a combination of the two. Actually mobility is the least impressive part about it isn't very compact. Its only supposed to be moved occasionally.
