That's the Sony Series 35 Model 10 which came out around 1981. It was sold as a dedicated word processor, although I understand it could run it's own version of CP/M. The Sony SMC-70, introduced in 1982, featured a pair of 3.5" floppy drives. Here's one I displayed at a show last month: http://ahm.ath.cx/photos/sony-smc70-1.jpg
It's probably hard to make out in that photo, but the two diskettes there are: the early non-shutter version (left) and the later "auto shutter" version (right). Unlike the Mac, the diskettes are ejected manually.
I think the first machine I ever saw with a 3.5" floppy was some sort of Sord computer from Japan.
I can't remember what year that was, but it might have been as early as 1980.
