Hi,

Can anyone tell me the definitive answer as to which UK F series models have the backlit keyboard?

The models in question are the VAIO VPCF13Z0E/B and the VAIO VPCF13Z1E/B

Both have very similar specs apart from the differing memory and hard drive size.

The Sony website isn't much help whatsoever but from what I can find out, the VPCF13Z0E replaced the VPCF13Z1E earlier this year as the current supported model.

Many websites list the VPCF13Z1E as having a backlit keyboard but when I've called them to verify this feature they're unable to confirm it.

When I was in the Sony Centre the assistant insisted that the newer model should be backlit aswell as it has the ambient light sensor, but having used the machine, the installed software does have the option for the keyboard backlighting at all which I assume isn't a feature after all.

Pulling my hair out here!

P.S. Sony, please sort out your website
