      Comments about Sony VAIO EH2 VPCEH27FX/B 15.5" Notebook Computer (Black):

      The Sony Vaio VPCEH27 is great, but I am disappointed not to have Bluetooth, does not have a monitor of 900 x 1600 Full HD! The Monitor is understandable, since the size is 15.5 ". But Bluetooth is unacceptable for a laptop with this configuration and value!
