Hi guys,
I know that quite a few ppl have been waiting for Sony to release out those AV-dock stations for the A and FS series laptops as separate accessories, (they are currently only bundled with new laptops).
Well the "kind of" good news is for the FS owners only up to now. Yes, if you check sonystyle.com (us site) the AV dock for the FS series laptops is now available, so it will probably be available in europe at some point. (Hopefully).
BUT there's a catch (as always with Sony apparently) they say its only compatible with those models bought in Summer 2005. I believe thats for software reasons and not hardware ones. Therefore i guess if someone can get his hands on the required software it shouldnt be a problem.
Apparently they are NOT supplying the necessary software for the stations. Your laptop has to come with those. That's why I said "kind of" good news.
As for the A-series owners (I'm one of them) no luck yet. Now why? I just can't think of a good reason... Why making the FS AV dock available before the A series its a thing to wonder. I mean, there should be (and most probably are) more A-series owners (and therefore potential buyers) around since the A series has been out for a year now. The FS only came out 4-5 months ago.
OK. maybe i've analysed this too much.
but anyways I thought some of you might wanted to know....
Cheers.
Nah just shove it on ebay and relax if it comes to that
:smileyd_oh:In the UK you can take it back to the retailer and say it doesn't suit your needs.
