Announced/Leaked: Dell XPS M1210

Looks like specifications and high-resolution images of the new Dell XPS M1210 have been released. It’s supposedly slated for a mid-May release. Back at the end of March, when the Samsung Q35 was released, we speculated that we might soon see a Dell Latitude X2 (or whatever it will be called). It looks like this might be in effect the Latitude X1’s replacement, instead of a X2, as the specifications are very similar (and a Samsung ultraportable notebook was the basis for the X1).

Announced/Review: Gateway NX100X (CNET)

As with the E-100Mb there has been no formal announcement, but there has already been a review by CNET of this model, which didn’t rate it too highly (6 out of 10). I saw this yesterday, but was holding off until the formal announcement from Gateway, but what the heck. As with the E-100Mb, it’s using an unnanounced Ultra Low Voltage (ULV) Core Solo from Intel (I’m sure Intel is very happy). The NX100X uses the 1.2GHz U1400 CPU (as opposed to the E-100Mb which uses a 1.06GHz U1300 CPU).

Rumors of the Dell Latitude 420

Just a few days ago I mentioned the announcement of the Samsung Q35, which replaced the laptop that was the basis for the Dell Latitude X1.

CNET Asia is reporting that a replacement for the Latitude 410 could be just around the corner. It’s a good candidate for an Intel Core Duo update – it shares some of the same features of the X1, minus the lighter weight and the widescreen display and falls in between the X1 and the consumer-oriented Inspiron 710M (which I could see going with a Intel Core Solo CPU.

This week Dell has announced several major updates to its higher-end and/or larger lineups – the Dell Latitude 620 and 820, and the Precision M65 and M90, all of which received the Intel Centrino platform updates.
