Here's a laptop that's just as thin. It similar specs, a better form factor and better battery life (14 hours). Its cheaper by $700, AND its from sony - oh the times they are a'changin.
Dell fails, hard
Dell Adamo XPS specs leak out: ULV processors, integrated graphics {Engadget}
Oct 23rd 2009 2:12PM @ Quixotic: Well, seeing as how concept cars are reserved for auto shows, as in 'not the consumer market', it would seem as though you don't get it either.
Dell might be pushing the envelope of design, but that doesn't mean its a good thing. The fact remains that this laptop is useless by many standards that the exceedingly average consumer can appreciate:
- Crappy Battery life
- Does not sit comfortably on the lap
- Scores a 3.3 on WE rating, pretty shoddy for a 2k+ machine
- and I'm still not sure about that latch, sure you don't usually open the machine when its dead, but that's still a pretty ill-thought out 'feature'
Dell Adamo XPS opens up for Windows 7 festivities, but still not for sale {Engadget}
Oct 22nd 2009 3:26PM What in God's name is that? When I saw the profile pics of its side I figured they were putting it upside down - making soem sort of fashion statement.
Well done dell, you've created the Pontiac Aztec of the laptop world

Nintendo DSi now available in North America {Engadget}
Apr 5th 2009 4:13PM I picked on up this morning. Its a pretty solid machine and the new case, matte instead of KFC-grease magnet, is a welcome addition.
The new DSi store is the whole reason to pick one up. Forget the camera and anything else, which is actually pretty good.
One thing I can definately see happening is in the future is video-calling. It has a front-facing camera and a microphone, and Wifi. Either nintendo is going to offer something, or the jailbreaking community will.

Sony's 11-inch VAIO TT: world's lightest Blu-ray laptop {Engadget}
Sep 23rd 2008 12:05PM When I go to the website posted in the press release (www.sonystyle.com/pr/tt), it shows that the only way to get blu-ray is not with a $2700 model, but a $4300 model. Also, it seems as though the only way to get the 1.4 ghz processor is to buy the the most expensive model.
I know it is just a pre-order at this point, but I hope I will be able to upgrade certain things on the computer. I waited all this time to upgrade my TX, and I'll be damned if I will be upgrading from 1.2 ghz single core to 1.2 ghz dual core. I'm also a veteran of sony press releases, so i know they are not the greatest when it comes to consumer relations. Only time will tell I suppose
iPhone finally coming to Canada {Engadget}
Apr 29th 2008 10:20AM My Prediction:
$500 for the phone with a 2 year plan
$100/month Basic Data Plan
$15/month system access fee
$10/month obligatory iPhone fee
$10/month for caller ID
$10/month for voice mail
I could go on all day. Suffice it to say, no good deal has ever come out of Rogers. Us Canadians always get screwed when it comes to cell phones. $300 for a 2 year old Sony slider? No thank you
