Sony Vaio PC's to Ship with Skype?

SonyVaio.pngIs Sony about to ship new Vaio's with Skype installed? This link to Sonystyle in Japan (which is apparently a separate company) suggests Skype has completed a local marketing deal.

However, my contact in Japan Asao Ishizuka contacted both Sony and Sonystyle and it appears that all Sony's Japanese Autumn models (Except Type A - Global?)) will ship with Skype preloaded. That's a big deal for Skype. From Sony's perspective as they preload many applications an announcement may not be forthcoming. For Skype this would represent an important breakthrough. We will continue trying to run down the facts.

Yes, it seems to be global, SonyStyle Europe sent me a newsletter on August 12 saying the same. Take a look at it here: http://nilback.se/Pi_right_wide.jpg
