It didn’t take long for Sony Vaio P to reach Malaysia. After unveiled at CES early January, it was launched in Malaysia last Wednesday on the low profile events.
The first netbook from Sony doesn’t come cheap though. With the price started at RM2788 for lower end (P13), and RM3788 for higher end (p15), Viao P is obviously the most expensive netbook on the market so far.
Typical Sony Viao, the built and design is great (from photos). Powered by Intel Atom just like other netbook, Viao P1 carrying Vista as it operating system which justify why it come 2GB memory by default.
Not much info on Sony website including the press release, so head to lowyat.net who has representative attending the event.
Originally from my mistake spelling Goole when I want is Google that land me on Goole.com, it raise my curiosity who else typosquatting Google.
But first of all Goole.com is not a typosquatter , it is actually a small town in East Yorkshire – UK althought the appearance is just like other typosquatter websites with a single search box and advertisements.
Google probably the most well known trademark in the internet. It got millions of traffic daily, so the misspelling ‘Google’ could bring additional traffic although that is illegal.
As I did little digging, I found more domain spelled like ‘Google’ but with extra ‘o’s. Some of them has already been redirected to Google.com, but some still not although it has little chance to get visitors due to quite obvious extra ‘o’ on the domain name. But , it still infringed the Google trademark though.
Gogle.com – redirected to Google.com Gooogle.com – (3 ‘o’s) redirected to Google.com Gooooogle.com – (5 ‘o’s) redirected to Google.com
And thats the end of websites pronounced and spelled like ‘Google’ but with extra ‘S’. No websites with 12 ‘o’s and above. These are additional websites that not really like ‘Google’ but pronounced almost the same.
