Is this truly mobile? Can I take it to a coffee shop just like my laptop?

Yes, it is truly mobile. The battery lasts up to 2 hours and with the wifi you can connect anywhere. However, it is a little bulky and heavy. It is more the screen size and weight that makes it a little less mobile friendly. I move mine from room to room sometimes and even to the patio. If I were running in someplace for 15 minutes, I don't know that I'd lug this VAIO with me, but if sitting someplace for an hour or two it is mobile enough. I haven't looked for a large carrier bag to pack it to go out someplace, but I'd suggest doing that too. Hope that helps? In short, truly mobile, yes. Conveniently mobile, less so than a laptop or smaller tablet.

It is portable, if you are an adult. It is not terribly heavy, but because of the impressive size, it can be a bit awkward. I love mine.

I wouldn't necessarily call it portable -- it doesn't have handles to carry it and it isn't compact. But it is self-contained with speakers and can be moved without disconnecting components.

It is very portable. It makes great scans. it is a little temperamental sometimes. My neww HP Office Jet is a piece of junk and uses up cartridges like candy.

HI therethis is basically a desktop solution and not really designed to cart around.The difference being it has it's screen attached and so you have an all in one solution which is easy to tranport to another area.It is not intended for laptop use due to it's huge size. where it is great is you can use it's screen along with another to achieve more functionality.

It is small and relatively lightweight, but it seems a bit delicate for mobile use. I would consider a hard case with foam lining for transport.

I would not think this would be suitable for a everyday use like a cafe. There is no bearing in the rotation and it's plastic on plastic. The ipad isn't really protected on the edges and there is no way to tighten the front/back swivel. There are much more rugged ipad POS enclosures available (for lots more money). This item suits our use which is at a craft show on the weekends. You might want to look into the stands that tip like a teeter-totter. You flip it over (screen changes automatically) for the customer to sign and flip back for you.

I take it everywhere but it is heavier than a modern laptop. To me, the weight is one of its main disadvantages.

No, it is unstable to hold beverage. But works for Laptop with track. No room for mouse or pad

You can bring it to the office, but bear in mind that its main use is for photography. The space for the laptop is really reduced (officially 13").

Most definitely! That's exactly why I bought it. The portability is just a plus for me. I wanted to stand periodically. I have two of these -- one at home and one at work.

Yes, it is a "real" laptop. I love mine because it is small and goes in my purse so I can carry it around with me. It is a laptop so it works just like my gateway at home.

It certainly could be. It's small and easy to use. You would only need to take ground coffee with you as it doesn't use pods. It's also easy to clean on the road.

I do not believe it can be used as a mobile device. It is solely used within it's own capacity, it can be linked a lap top or desk top.

I don't own one, but I've extensively researched it online and "played" with it at BestBuy. If you need a compact, advanced, wireless laptop then I don't see how you could go wrong here. With VMFusion or Paralells, you can even run Windoze on it without rebooting. This is a sweet piece of technology.

I think you would find it lacking. It's not really a strong pc. I use it for restaurant pos stuff. It works fine for that, but if I was buying a computer for myself to use daily I would not recommend it.
