There has been a lot of talk this moring about the new Dell XPS15z being copied from a Macbook Pro. After inspecting the images from Engadget it seems that its remarkable how similar the laptops actually are.
The Dell XPS15z has a 15 inch screen and it has a lot more style compared to your average Dell laptop. However, it comes with a $999 price tag.
The Dell Streak 7 tablet is available to buy in the UK as of today. The Dell Streak 7 tablet has been available in the USA for a while now and has produced some decent sales numbers.

Dell has announced the full range of their Windows 7 tablets that will be launching in 2011. There werent exactly too many details, but here is the list.
“The upcoming tablet is designed for end-users who need greater mobility, as well as IT organizations that demand control, security, manageability and integration with existing infrastructure investments,” quips Dell. “Dell’s tablet will empower a more mobile workforce in a way that offers customers the business applications and corporate data they need, while meeting regulatory mandates and IT requirements.”

Dell has just launched the Dell Venue Pro Windows Phone 7 device. The Dell Venue Pro will be available in the next few days with a price tag of £439.99, contract free with free shipping included. The Dell Venue Pro is the first mobile phone powered by Microsoft’s strong operating system as well as featuring a portrait sliding form factor.

Since the release of Apple’s new hot gadget, there’s been a tablet fever all around us. And DELL is taking a new step by introducing Streak, a 5” tablet based on Android OS.

Yes, 5” seems a bit small for a tablet; and since you’ll be able to use 3G technology, possibly is going to be the largest phone available in the market as well. Here are some of the specs:
Android platform complete with Android Market and Dell user interface enhancements
- 1GHz Qualcomm Snagdragon processor
- 3G + WiFi + Bluetooth
- 5MP integrated camera.
- 2GB of internal memory and MicroSD expansion slot (up to 32GB).
- Integrated Google Maps with turn-by-turn navigation, street and satellite views.
- Flash 10.1 support.
- Availability in the UK: Early June.
- Availability in the US: Later this summer.
- Pricing: To be announced.
The question is, regular users will be interested in having a big smartphone or using a normal phone plus this small tablet?
There has been a lot of buzz about the Dell Mini 5 recently. Mostly after the extreme let down following the Apple iPad launch. For example, we discovered that there were prototypes on the black market before Dell wanted them released. Of course, now there are quite a few review pieces knocking around with dozens of review popping up all over the place.
T3 Mag, a tech publication based in Greece, released a video with two presenters (and a very unfunny DELLicious joke). When watching it, I recommend skipping right to the end. This is the interesting bit.

They point out that the dock, which will be available separately from the device, had a HDMI output port which presumably runs either to a TV or PC (or both). I think that Dell have made a great addition here. HDTV is new enough to the market and with 3DTV hot on it heels so it’s great that we’re starting to see some serious compatibility on mobile devices. Hopefully it will enable us to have a better mobile entertainment industry.

Today, we have three great deals for our readers. Each of these deals could save you large chunks of the RRP on quality tech merchandise.

Taking the new Intel processors family release, Dell is now offering two, of what used to be expensive models, Dell Adamo and Dell Alienware with a significant price cut.

If you are a Dell user, or maybe you thought at least once to get a Dell notebook, you should know that these two models were always pretty expensive. Dell Adamo will be presented as the basic model with a price around u$s1000.
Alienware always represented high-ended users, since from the start these notebooks represented the gamer spirit of their users (even before Dell bought the company). Now Dell is releasing the Alienware M11X, that is actually some kind of netbook according to the size, but as any other gamer computer, has some significant piece of hardware in it:
- Intel Core 2 Duo

- NVidia 335M (new generation)
- 1GB of memory (should be more, don’t you think?)
- 8 cell battery with 6hr of autonomy.
- 11” display.
- VGA, HDMI and DisplayPort available.
The price for the Dell Alienware M11X will be u$s799.

More tablet news now, except this one wasn’t expected by anyone. It’s not too often that you hear of company prototypes being sold for over a grand on the black market, but it appears that it’s just happened.
PC Online managed to get their hands on an early version of Dell’s Tablet which is still in development. It was unmarked on the exterior but a model number under the battery read ‘M01M’.
This leak has confirmed many of our suspicions about the Mini 5.
- 5 Inch Touch Screen
- 80×480 resolution
- Running Android 1.6 OS
- 1Ghz of CPU power (not to shabby, Dell)
- Wifi
- Bluetooth
- 3G capabilities
- Good quality 5Mp camera with a dual-LED flash
- A front Facing Camera for video conferencing etc…
- and a 1530mAh battery to power the device
So how much does a prototype Dell Mini 5 cost you on the black market? $1,100. But keep in mind that’s on the black market. The actual retail price will be much lower. At least I hope!
