Dell Inspiron Mini 12 Officially the Biggest Netbook on the Block [Dell Inspiron Mini 12]
Gizmodo — ... is officially the most gargantuan netbook on the block. I wasn't exactly blown away by it when I scoped it briefly a couple months ago, but Laptop was sufficiently impressed in its more in-depth hands on to compare it to the MacBook Air and Voodoo Envy—but you know, 0.2 inches thicker, more ports and you know, a thousand dollars cheaper at only $599. ...

Dell launches the Inspiron Mini 12
Engadget — ... less than one inch thick. The bad news? It's Japan-only for now, but it'll hit the States late next month with a starting price under $600. That's a pretty hot price / performance ratio on paper -- if this thing performs like it should, it could potentially take away sales from more full-featured ultraportables like the Envy 133 and the MacBook Air. We'll see how it goes -- the netbook market suddenly got interesting again, eh? Read - Dell announcement Read - Laptop hands-on Read - Dell Q+APermalink | Email ...

Dell mini 12 very early Review
I4U News — ... netbook running Vista. Quote from the early mini 12 encounter: "The Inspiron Mini 12 was just about the same thickness as the Lenovo ThinkPad x200 I had brought to the meeting, and only a bit thicker than the .76-inch MacBook Air that one of the meeting attendees had on the table (see the photos in the gallery below). But that extra girth buys the Dell more ports - 3 USB, full-size VGA out, a 3-in-1 card reader, along with a mic and headphone jack." Read the full report on LaptopMag . More details about the ...

Dell Mini 12, el nuevo ultraportátil de 12 pulgadas de $600
Gizmología — ... “ultra brillante”, disco duro de 80GB, Bluetooth 2.0 y WiFi 802.11g como conexiones. Una pena que Dell no le añada un módem 3G, porque si lo hiciesen lo redondearían al ultraportátil perfecto.Lo que Dell ha logrado crear es que este portátil sea muy ligero, solo 1.2Kg, con el tamaño de la pantalla me pensaba algo más pesado, pero sobretodas las cosas, mirad el grosor del portátil, es muy fino. LaptopMag ya lo ha probado y parece que efectivamente, Dell ha logrado crear algo tan ligero ...

Dell Inspiron Mini 12 netbook official
SlashGear — ... is Windows Vista.  Versions of the Dell Inspiron Mini 12 running Ubuntu and Windows XP will be available before the end of the year.  The battery, as standard, is a 3-cell pack rated for up to 3hrs; a 6-cell version - with a claimed runtime of up to 6hrs - is available for $79.  Unfortunately there’s no integrated 3G, nor does the Mini 12 have the necessary internal antennas or, from the sound of it, the WWAN modem itself; that will have to wait until early 2009. LaptopMag and APC Mag have both spent some hands-on time with the ...

Dell Mini 12 emerges: netbook or notebook?
jkOnTheRun — ... to be ignored.  The Mini 9 was a typical configuration for the netbook class with a 9-inch screen and Atom processor like the rest of the crowd.  Dell was rumored to be considering a 12-inch "netbook" to add to the line and details are emerging about the biggest netbook to date.  Laptop Magazine got a chance to see a pre-production model of the Mini 12 and were impressed with how light and thin the notebook is compared to other cheap alternatives.  They snapped some pictures alongside a MacBook Air, not a netbook for sure due to its high ...

Dell Mini Inspiron 12: Cheap, MacBook Air-Sized Netbook
Wired: Gadget Lab — ... here. Watch as those who established "netbook" as a fashionable category follow Asus in applying that branding to cheap, nasty notebooks, little different to the bog-standard Inspirons and Averatecs that have been available for under $500 for years. He's probably right, but at least with the netbooks we know we're buying something less capable. The "bog-standard Inspirons and Averatecs", by contrast, try to pass themselves off as real computers.
