Sony's new Vaio NW Series is certainly desirable - but it could be the most desirable laptop of all time if the pre-order price that TechRadar found of £1.99 is adhered to.
In what is clearly an early mistake by the Vaio store (or Sony is being very generous indeed!) we found the brand new Sony Vaio NW series available for pre-order at just £1.99 (£1.73 minus VAT).
Obviously we placed an order for the laptop, which boasts an 'instant on' web browser to avoid those lengthy boot-ups when you just want to surf.
Of course, as the Ts and Cs state, "We may or may not accept your offer at our discretion."
We're thinking that they probably won't accept our offer – but here's hoping!

8. Dear Mr Daltry
Thank you for your recent orders placed through Sony UK, for the VGN-NW11 series VAIO.
Unfortunately, the item that you ordered was mistakenly priced at £1.99 or £9.99 and has now been removed from sale whilst this is corrected.
Although every care is taken to ensure the accuracy of the information on the Website, we do sell a large number of products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, there may be inaccuracies or typographical errors, which may include pricing errors. Regrettably this is what happened on this occasion.
In accordance with the Terms and Conditions of Sale (clause 8.4), we are under no obligation to provide the product to you at the incorrect (lower) price if the pricing error is obvious and unmistakable and could have reasonably been recognized by you as a mis-pricing; this remains the case even if we have already sent an Order Confirmation to you.
In light of the fact that this was a clear pricing error we have cancelled your order and a refund will be processed straight away. Our apologies for the disappointment this may cause.
Should you have any queries please contact the Sony Sales Centre on 0845 6000 124 (Option2).
Yours sincerely
Salina Vuong
