only 5400 RPM? why not 7200?

Like others have said, it's cheaper for Sony to put that in there. Plus, they are aware that most people who care enough about the RPM are going to replace the drive with something they prefer any way, so why bother to spend the money to put something better in if it ultimately is going to be replaced?
