SONY VAIO: Can somebody explain this?

I want to buy the SONY notebook with Duron 800. I also want PowerNow!. So I went to SONY VAIO site. Can't find info for the Duron Notebook. BUT, what I found is that VAIO RX series (mid level) is all Athlon and J series (low end) is all Duron. The Digital Dtudio (high end) series is P4 only. That means SONY sells AMD only in low-mid spots. Good news even I can't find the Notebook there.
sonystyle.com

Then I went to BestBuy and eCost.com. This is what found:
FX210 Notebook: Duron 800 + LCD 14.1" for $1545.
FX215 Notebook: Duron 800 + LCD 15" for $1695.
ecost.com

The good news is SONY obviously added 15" model to the line. The bad news is no where I can find if the Duron has PowerNow!. Does anybody know which Duron those VAIO notebooks use? TIA.
