Dell updates Adamo website with a new teaser
Tech Ticker —   Dell has got a new teaser up and running on Adamo’s website. The teaser as you would expect, is a teaser which reveals nothing but asking users to signup for the Adamo ‘love story’. Dell unveiled Adamo last month at the CES and it was sort of a cold launch with just the prototype being displayed and no specs whatsoever. No concrete specs also led to the speculation that Dell’s lagging behind the launch schedule and Adamo might come out in 2H 2009. The visible things from the specs page include a 13-inch screen, USB ports, LAN ...

And Dell has decided to update the site dedicated to the future computer but there’s absolutely no info for us. What we know now about the Adamo right now is no different compared to what we knew yesterday. We don’t want to see the site getting fancier, we want to see ...

Dell Adamo Website: So… do you have to be a model to own one or what?
CrunchGear — The models on Dell’s new Adamo teaser site, AdamoByDell.com, are gorgeous in that creepy, weird, I-have-a-bird-in-my-purse sort of way. Looks like the company’s really going for the fashion-conscious crowd with this one. I might be interested in one once we get more details about it but I’m gonna have to get some of those jeans that you have to dry clean and iron. The site itself is relatively devoid of information other than an e-mail signup and some links to various media outlets’ CES coverage along with an RSS feed. However, if you like Flash intros and photos of various ...

Dell Adamo teaser campaign continues (to annoy)

New Dell Adamo ‘robots video’
CrunchGear — Ah, finally some little computer parts flying around before being assembled by robots.

I hope the ...
