Sony UX coming to the UK?
Mobile enthusiasts in the UK have been waiting for word from Sony that they will sell the Sony UX Micro PC in that country, but so far that word has not come. Today we offer confirmation (sort of) that SonyStyle will be selling the UX in the UK later this year in the form of an email to jkOnTheRun reader Jonathan Balkind:
Dear Sir,
The UX was released in the US on July 4th.
At this present moment I have no further information as to the release date of this product in the UK. (maybe 3 to 4 months but that is just a guess)
Sorry I am unable to inform you more.
For further information, please contact the UK Customer Information Centre on 44(0)870 5111999. You will not need to choose any options from their automated phone system, simply hold the line and wait for the next available agent.
We trust the above information will be of use to you.
Kind regards,
Sony Style UK

Thanks for the info! Just hope they will bring out some good models when it is finally released.
I received this email from Sony this morning (25 Sep 06). I do not know if they are referring to the UX PC 180P which is obviously on the way out or if all such products will not be released here !! email follows….
Good Morning Francis,
I have spoken to my supervisor this morning who has advised me that the Sony UX PC Micro that you are after is not coming into Europe but only the US and Japan. I would of loved to helped you and done some business but if not going to be available then I wont be able to.
I do hope that you manage to source this product through Sony but from Japan or the US.
Thanks for the interest in Sony Style
Kind Regards
