Overview of the Software on Your Notebook

Smart Capture

Smart Capture is a fun new way to send multimedia messages via e-mail. Smart Capture manages the i.LINK®* connection between your notebook and a Sony Digital Handycam® Camcorder that supports the i.LINK interface. It allows you to capture compressed video or still images and save them to your hard disk drive or share via e-mail. A smart solution for computer, digital audio/video and network convergence.

Smart Connect (On selected models)

Smart Connect enables you to use an i.LINK®* cable to connect your VAIO computer to another VAIO computer that supports Smart Connect. You can then use one computer to copy, delete, and edit files on the other computer. You can also print from a printer attached to either computer.
