Understandable. There is a Sony U series list out there. More information
for anyone wondering about these small computers:

Dynamism - buy the Japanese version in the USA. They provide English
versions of OS and restore discs and warranty service to USA. Most things
are imported from Japan and have no worldwide warranty or support. Cost more
than Conics.
http://www.dynamism.com/ux/main.shtml

Conics - they are in Japan but provide sales to the world. Run by an
American I believe. Not as extensive in support options as Dynamism but
usually cheaper.
Here is a search giving all Sony U computers, see the older clamshell models
and compact flash ones that were not available in the USA officially

Opinions on the small computers and some history covering the U series, OQO,
Libretto, etc.

Wikipedia entry on U series is missing all the information about the past
computers that were not available in the USA.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sony_U-series

Sony U series computers were at least these models:

Clamshell
PCG-U1
PCG-U3
PCG-U101

Tablet
U590
U70p
U750

Tablet with slide out keyboard
VGN-UX50
VGM-UX90S
VGN-UX180
VGN-UX280
