[edit] Substitution by the C series
The FJ series has now been replaced in North America and Europe by the new C series but in Asia, it is called F light as the light version of the Fs because its smaller but with the same specifications except for the c-190 because it has a centrino duo 2.0 GHz processor, but the other C series models have a 1.80 GHz processor or a 1.66 GHz Centrino Duo processor.
The C series does not have a built in camera and speakers are less powerful Than the FJ series.
[edit] Low end FJ
Sony released a low end edition of FJ series. this was was much cheaper and avialable from $800 dolars, but it didn't included a built in camera, and used Intel Celeron(1.60GHz) procesor instead of more powerful Centrino CPU(1.90 or 2.33GHz), it also included 60GB hard drive instead of the usual 100GB. This model sold well in Asian market.
[edit] FJ Market
The FJ series was first targeted as a home/work computer as the FJ190 but the FJ270/370 which was the most powerful edition was for home/work/student computer the FJ290 which had inferior specifications was the "colors" computer because it was available in five color which where later expanded to 9 colors when VAIO 10th anniversary especial edition appeared in Japan the FJ series called F light is available in different colors than in America and was TV capable using Windows Media Center. F light series are not going to be replaced by the C series like in America.
