VAIO X versus VAIO TZ

I recently got wind of the upcoming VAIO X "ultraportable" by Sony, and I wanted to know approximately how good of a laptop that might turn out to be. I know they haven't released any specifications for the X yet other than it will house an Atom processor instead of the normal Core 2 Duo they have gone with for the TZ and TT.

I have a VAIO TZ laptop that is slowly getting older and would like to get an opinion on how well my TZ will hold up to the VAIO X.

For now, I will assume that the VAIO X will be comparable in quality to the VAIO P (but slightly better obviously), so I will fudge around with some specs shown below:

VAIO X (theoretical):
Processor: Intel Atom N470, 1.83GHz (667 FSB) (1 MB Cache)
Memory: 2 GB DDR2
Hard Drive: 128 GB SSD
Display: 11.1"
Max Resolution: 1366 x 768
Video Chipset: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 500

VAIO TZ (actual):
Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo U7500, 1.06 GHz (533 FSB) (2 MB Cache)
Memory: 2GB DDR2
Hard Drive: 100 GB Ultra ATA (4200 rpm)
Display: 11.1''
Max Resolution: 1366 x 768
Video Chipset: Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950



I'm looking to compare performance issues such as video playback, multithreading features (excel or simple video editing), external dual screen performance, Flash, Photoshop, multitasking, etc.

Have at it boys, compare away.
