The 13-inch and 16-inch versions of this notebook now come with a Merlot Red color option. This is definitely a flashy upgrade from the single color choice of black prior to this new announcement.It doesn’t cost any extra to have your notebook come in red. The color is distributed primarily on the lid, which is red, but the area near the hinge is also adorned in red leather to make for an interesting accent. You can get this slightly snazzier Dell Studio XPS notebook now.

Dell’s Doug Anson, Technology Strategist is showing Dell Mini 10v netbooks running different operating systems including Android’s Cupcake version. Though he does not go beyond saying Android is “small and a snappy” environment, it actually is the first step by them towards porting the OS onto a product that can be commercialized in the future.

Dell may have held their Android netbook development closely to their chest but it’s an ancillary company that has leaked their intentions. Bsquare Corp. issued a press release about their recent order which involved them to port Adobe Flash Lite on Dell’s Android netbook.On the other hand, unconfirmed tip comes to Tmonews about HTC’s development. Apparently, it will arrive on T-Mobile supporting 3G connectivity.
MSI will show its Android netbook at the Computex this year while Skytone is preparing to sell its Android netbook soon.
Dell is now selling Inspiron Mini 10’s cheaper sibling, the Mini 10v. The base model is priced at $299 and comes with N270 processor, 1GB RAM, 120GB HDD, integrated webcam, different I/O ports, Wi-Fi and a 3-cell battery. The screen size measures the same at 10.1-inches with the resolution is stuck at 1024×576 pixels, so there’s no way you can upgrade it like Mini 10.

The much hyped thin-and-light 13.4 inch Adamo laptop is now available for preorder from Dell, and it's officially a lot less exciting than we'd hoped for.
The starting price for the Adamo is $1,999 and for that you get an Intel Core 2 Duo ULV at 1.2GHz, 2GB of 800MHz DDR3 memory, a 128GB solid state drive, and a genuine copy of Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit. Oh joy. And graphics are delivered by the mediocre Intel GM45 chip.
Sure, this is a luxury laptop and it’s arguably good looking, but put it next to its rival – the MacBook Air, also a luxury model – and it immediately pales in comparison. It also weighs 4 pounds, a pound more than the Air, which is a lot when comparing ultraportables.
Even in the best of economic climates it would be hard to sell this laptop, but right now it should prove damn near impossible. To continue the MBA comparison, the Apple ultraportable is also available with an SSD and uses more powerful 1.6GHz and 1.8GHz Core 2 Duo’s from Intel, and also has the much more capable Nvidia chipset.

Wow, this upcoming laptop from Dell looks so gorgeous. Called ‘Adamo‘, the notebook seems to be the most stylish machine to date. It is also now the world’s thinnest laptop, breaking MacBook Air record, with less than an inch thick (0.65-inch to be precise). The hardware configuration are not disappointing either with a combination of a 1.2Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor, a 2GB of RAM, a 128GB of Solid State Disk (SSD), a 13.4-inch LCD screen with 16:9 aspect ratio, WiFI, Bluetooth, and an optional integrated mobile broadband. All placed inside an aluminium chassis and a scalloped backlit keyboard. Once again, wow!Tuesday, March 17, 2009
