Centrino Technology for Maximized Mobile Power |
The Intel Pentium M processor is a key component of the breakthrough Centrino technology that also includes the Intel 855 chipset family and wireless LAN (WLAN) capability. Intel's Pentium M processor includes performance enhancements that enable this VAIO notebook to execute instructions faster with less power. The integrated wireless LAN capabilities of Intel Centrino mobile technology gives you easy wireless access anywhere there is an available WLAN access, at home, or around the world. Eliminating the tangles of trailing cables is reason enough to get serious about wireless at home and work. After all, mobility is the main reason for having a notebook, so why would you want to be chained to a wall outlet. Meanwhile out on the road, the number of public access sites continues to multiply. It's estimated that by 2005, WLAN access will be available at 100,000 sites worldwide (estimate by IDC market research firm). With Intel Centrino wireless technology you can check your e-mail at the airport and surf from your comfy chair. Working together, the three components of Intel Centrino technology give the V505DX increased computing power and enhanced stamina while giving you the freedom of true mobility. |
