Hello - I'm sure there's probably a website for this -- could someone please help?

Will the F/A have a cord for me to use my SONY VAIO laptop enxt week on VS 024 (UC)??? Or -- should I buy something to take with me?

Thanks, Steven

There's a post somewhere on here with a link to the nib chart that VS use. Can't find it though... [:(]


... yet ;)

Well depending on the model it will likely be a 19 or a 58 (Empower). Anybody know what iGo Tip I should use with my Vaio VGN-BX197XP 'cos iGo seem not to...

This thing is a beast - 1.5 hours on battery alone. Suspect it will need a standalone diesel generator...

Ooo.. thanks for that. I've just acquired a new TX1XP - the new model of the T series. And I previously looked up that VS link, but couldn't see even the T-series on it. So No.19 .. thanks.

Will all aircraft carry this? Do I just ask CC for it after take-off?


(Although with the six hour battery life on this beauty, it may not be necessary!)

No problem, I assume all aircraft will have the pack of nibs, I just asked one of the crew for a lead and we went through all the nibs till we found no19 fitted.

Did you get it to work?

I have the same Sony BX197XP laptop and found that the adapter couldn't supply enough power!! The laptop kept switching from mains to battery until the adapter stopped working. Tried 5 adapters and two seats. Oh well.....

Well funnily I decided to play with my "travel battery" to see if would last the 3+ hours I was hoping. That worked... so I didn't get to play with my iGo.
