Sony extends Xross Media Bar UI to Vaio FW laptops
Filed under: Laptops
Sony really likes the Xross Media Bar. So much, in fact, that the PS3-like interface has appeared in its Bravia LCD TVs for some time, and now it’s putting that same interface theme in its new Vaio FW laptops. The Vaio Media+ software uses the same left/right, up/down scrolling UI to help extend its “digital living room” all the way to your, um, lap. This all makes sense, and we welcome a consolidated UI theme, but this means, of course, that Sony is pretty much locked into this theme for some time, and we won’t be seeing any major interface changed to the PS3 like we have on the Xbox 360 Dash, for better or worse.Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
