Just becuase they were the first ones to do it really really well does not mean they were the first.

Truthfully, I think most people should avoid attempting sarcasm altogether. It's rather annoying to have a person throw sarcastic comments all the time.]]>Dec 18th 2007 10:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/
Q: Does the internet medium convey sarcasm well?
A: No. There are too many morons on the internets, it's very hard to detect sarcasm from stupidity.]]>Dec 18th 2007 8:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/

"The standard display for the XT is a 12.1-inch WXGA (1290 x 800) LED backlit LCD while an optional DLV panel is also available for viewing outdoors or under direct light."

and from dell:
"Optional Outdoor Viewable (400 nit) LCD
You can also configure your Latitude XT with a super-bright 400 cd/m2 LCD display. A typical notebook has a screen brightness of 185 cd/m2 to 220 cd/m2, so at 400 cd/m2, the XT offers much improved viewability outdoors and less reflections under overhead direct light indoors."]]>Dec 19th 2007 12:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/Dec 19th 2007 9:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/

The tx1000 SUCKS, and is in no way comparable to the xt, except that it is a "convertible tablet laptop". And just for the record, I do not believe that their price is justified, I think it's way overpriced. Just not even on the same playing field.]]>Dec 19th 2007 7:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/Dec 19th 2007 10:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/Dec 19th 2007 10:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/18/dell-doth-protest-too-much-on-xt-pricing/
Price descrepancies like this usually can be traced to the lining of someones pockets. The country of origin of the N-trig company would also be a prudent look-see.]]>Dec 31st 2007 2:48AM
