Sony has a new laptop series ready to be launched, the Vaio X. The Vaio should be made official sometime tomorrow so in the mean time we can take a sneak peak at the “world’s lightest netbook.” The Vaio X comes with a carbon-fiber chassis and weighs a total of just 1.6 pounds. It’s also just half an inch thin, but that pretty clear from the picture here. Other features include a 11.1-inch LED backlit display that will offer you a 16:9 aspect ratio, a multitouch touchpad, an SSD drive, Windows 7 and a choice of battery between the standard battery that’s going to get you a 3.5 hours of battery life while the super extended battery can offer you up to 14 hours of life. The X Series will be available in Canada in November and it will cost $1,499 while other markets should also get the laptop soon.

Earlier today we notified you of the Vaio X’s existence but weren’t able to secure many pictures of the device seeing as it was announced so recently. Now, however, our friends over at Netbook News have gotten their hands on Sony’s device at this year’s IFA only to give us an in depth look at it.

As mentioned earlier, this device is extremely thin at just 14mm and is rumored to feature an Intel Atom processor making for an extremely long battery life.

No official word of a release date but it will reportedly ship next month coupled with Windows 7.
