Available in five colours, including Onyx Black, Pearl White, Sky Blue, Jade Green and Raspberry Red, the FJ Series offers the choice for Spanish speakers to have the latest mobile notebook computer tailored for their home and work lifestyles.

Ramping up to the VAIO FJ en Espanol launch, Sony is introducing a soccer-themed promotion.

Sony’s VAIO FJ Series notebooks are sleek, 14.1-inch widescreen PCs that unite portable power and productivity with a sense of style. The incorporated camera and microphone helps users to stay in touch with others through virtual face-to-face conversations, while an onboard DVD+R double layer/DVD+RW drive and XBRITE-ECO LCD technology turn it into a mini-movie theatre to watch DVDs at home or on the go.
