Despite the fact that the Sony Vaio UX series [product page] of UMPCs is now several years old, people still seem to associate it with some sort of futuristic looking gadgetry. We’ve seen the Vaio UX featured in a number of films and music videos, but this definitely takes things to the next level.
Fancy yourself an action figure collector? Why not drop $200 on this John Connor (Terminator Salvation) figure, and if you order from Sideshow Collectibles, you’ll apparently get your very own “Portable Computer inch, as seen used in the movie, as an exclusive extra! ultra mobile PC aficionados will have noticed the Vaio UX490 used in Terminator Salvation, and it’s been recreated in model form with surprising accuracy:
Seriously, take a look at the detail on this thing. Someone did their research. Everything from the tiny speaker holes to the left of the fingerprint scanner, to the air vents on the bottom, and the mic on the right side toward the bottom of the keyboard. I’m seriously impressed.
I’m been wishing for a smaller and cheaper Vaio UX, but this isn’t exactly what I had in mind.
I don’t see “amazing sliding action! inch nor “incredible lighted power button! inch listed as any of the miniature UX’s features. I can still dream though, right?
Thanks to bladeiai from MicroPCTalk for the heads up.

Wow, I totally want that. That is some crazy detail. I wonder why Chippy and JKK don’t talk about the Sony Vaio UX more. They both love 5 inch sliders.
How about a UX revival post? Happy to do it if someone can loan me a UX.
I wish you could get your hands on a UX490 with Win 7, but I know you’d dislike the keyboard and poor battery life : P. Aside from that though, it’s a great device! I’ve got my UX, but it’s the least modern one of the bunch.
yow … that’s the heavy communications … eeehhhmmm “battle & combat” communicator …. you have to feel it in your pocket to be a “hero” … ipod’s(slates) are for those lazy chouch potatoes
