I would have bought one if it had 32MB RAM on the graphics card and a Mobility 9000.

I truely love my Z1. Even though the videocard only comes with 16MB it is blazingly fast for my use (I don't play games on it however). I normally always bought the latest Toshiba notebooks, but now I am Sony fan.

So far I haven't had any problems with it. The keyboard is great, the mouse works efficiently (even though I was used to the pointing stick on my old Tosh), the design is the most beautiful thing I have seen on todays laptops (except maybe for the Mac's).

Also I really like the keyboard. Since I am touch-typing I don't have any problem with the size of the right shift-key. I also bought the additional high capacity battery, so I can work all day long on my favorit cafe in Lissabon.

One thing however I miss it a volume adjustment wheel. I did take a little time to get the blue-tooth connection to work with my Sony Ericsson P800, but I got it fixed.

BTW: I have the S-model.

My GRX has volume adjustment - you press FN+F4 and use the dial to turn it up and down and press on the dial to accept the changes.

I really love my Z1. However, i don't like the small right Shift key. Is there anyway to fix this problem? I'd appreciate the help.

Whats wrong with it?

The problem is that it is too small, and I am kinf of used to the big sized one. That's why i frequently miss it while typing, and hit the arrow key instead. I was just wondering if it would be possible to replace this small shift key with a bigger one, even if I will have to give up the arrow key.

Nope, you can't replace keys.

I suggest getting used to it, doing some typing excercises until you feel confident with the keyboard.
