Quartet of Dell Streaks spotted in the wild in Seattle, testing for AT&T
Posted on May 20, 2010 | No CommentsIt's not often you see four unreleased gadgets rather unceremoniously attached to a plank of wood on the sidewalk, but that's exactly what Seattle Times blogger Brier Dudley spotted: four Dell Streaks all in a row. AT&T network technicians were apparently verifying performance of the devices on the company's 3G network and also ensuring their ability to send accurate e-911 information. Among the four was a bright crimson model, but sadly the pink and orange versions we're holding out for were not present on this particular piece of timber. We should be just a few weeks away from the Streak going fully public, at which point you can hopefully find something a little more suitable to attach yours to.

webOS booted up on a PC, just for kicks (video)
Posted on May 16, 2010 | No CommentsIt's always been possible to run webOS on a PC using the emulator built into Palm's SDK, but it turns out that the OS image used for the emulator can actually be installed on an IDE hard drive and booted from -- which is exactly what one enterprising member of the PreCentral forums did with his Dell C600 laptop. It's not too surprising webOS can do this, since it's built on Linux, but don't get too excited yet; the OS runs in a funky aspect ratio in a small portion of the screen and the lack of a touchscreen means you're stuck using the keyboard to navigate. Still, it's hard not to watch this without visions of webOS running on all manner of HP hardware in the very near future -- a tablet, perhaps? Video after the break.

Dell CEO: Streak coming next month to Telefonica O2, ‘later this summer’ to AT&T
Posted on May 13, 2010 | No CommentsYou know who can't stop talking about (or showing off) the Dell Streak / Mini 5? Company CEO Michael Dell, that's who. The man once again returned with his Android-powered 5-inch display of choice, showing it off on stage at the Citrix Synergy conference this morning. Sure, we've seen the handset ad nauseum at this point -- we're even a proud owner of one prototype -- but here's the quote that piqued our interest: "this [phone] will be available starting next month, first with our partner 02 Telefonica [sic] in Europe, then later this summer with our pretty good partner here in the United States, AT&T." He couldn't be much more direct, and we couldn't get it from a more knowing source. Excited for the near future yet?

The Dell Latitude 2110 netbook packs mobile broadband and touchscreens
Posted on May 11, 2010 | No Comments
There is certainly a market for business-ordinated netbooks and Dell's latest Latitude netbook ensures that it can keep up with the corporate world. An Intel Atom still resides at the core, but it's the new 1.83GHz N470 model backed with the latest Intel Graphics Media Accelerator, the 3150. Along with a wide range of hard drive and OS options including Windows XP, Vista, Win 7, Linux, and FreeDOS, the updated netbook can also be configured with a mobile broadband card.

Dell Aero slips though the FCC, ready for Q2 launch
Posted on May 6, 2010 | No CommentsWith FCC approval out of the way it looks like the Dell Aero is all set to meet the leaked Q2 launch goal. Sure, we've already seen a generic Dell Mini 3iX (model V02B) pass through the FCC with AT&T (Canadian Bell Mobility, Telus, Rogers) bands back in November. But today's Mini 3iG (model V01B) sports 802.11b/g WiFi, Bluetooth, UMTS 1900 / 850 support, and the undeniable "Aero" marketing name destined to grace the first of many Android handsets made by Dell (uh hem, Foxconn) to be sold Stateside. For whatever that's worth.

Dell’s 7- and 10-inch tablets appear right on schedule
Posted on April 16, 2010 | No Comments
It looks like Dell has been quietly toiling away at a whole family of tablets and not just the 5-inch Streak shown off post-CES 2010. There are 7- and 10-inch version in the works, too. It's not actually a surprise per se as we doubt anyone really believed that Dell's only tablet offering would be a small 5-inch guy.

CrunchRumor: Alienware M11x to get updated Nvidia chipset?
Posted on April 8, 2010 | No CommentsOne question that has come up ever since the M11x was released was why didn’t Alienware use the Nvidia Optimus chipset. The chipset that Alienware did use makes switching between the integrated and discreet graphics rather awkward and jarring, and a less then ideal user experience. Well, the rumor rattling around the pipes today is [...] -
The Dell Latitude E6410 ATG has attitude
Posted on April 7, 2010 | No Comments
What do you get when you combine the new Dell Latitude E6410 with a semi-rugged frame? Obviously this ATG model. Yeah, I know, lame joke but I don't have time to to think of a more clever intro so deal with it.

The Dell Latitude E6410 and E6510 bring Core i5, Core i7, and discrete graphics
Posted on April 7, 2010 | No Comments
Dell has been building notebooks under the Latitude nameplate, well, forever, right? It seems that way, but the series keeps trucking on as the company continues to load the latest goods onto the platform. The E6410 and E6510 builds upon the success of the previous generation but ditches the 2009 specs for chips that are a bit more 2010.

HP and Dell say the 10-inch netbook market is getting too crowded
Posted on April 1, 2010 | No Comments
Despite the boom in netbooks in recent years thanks to a poor economy and cash-strapped consumers, a recent Digitimes article reported that HP and Dell are actually reducing their investments in the commoditized 10-inch netbook market. In fact, HP is considering quitting the 10-inch segment altogether to focus on its 11.6-inch AMD notebooks as the Intel Pine Trail netbooks have not been very profitable.

Anti-CrunchDeal: Refurb Dell XPS M1530 Core 2 Duo notebook for only $4,536
Posted on April 1, 2010 | No Comments
Whoa there, Dell. This is one hell of deal you have here in the Dell Outlet. A used XPS M1530 notebook for $4,536? It better come bundled with a used Mercedes-Benz because there is nothing about this notebook that's worth over $800 anyway.

Dude, you’re getting a Dell and a Sony Reader
Posted on March 31, 2010 | No Comments
The details are simple: buy a select Dell notebook or desktop and a Sony Reader Pocket Edition ships along with it for no additional cost. It's actually a nice little deal although it's only for two days. Of course like with most sales, the actual cost savings is minimal as the sale price is likely inflated to included the cost of the ereader, but that's fine. Ereaders tend to be something the consumers are curious about and are unwilling to pull the trigger just yet. Getting more ereaders in the average joes that buy Dells might help the whole industry.

Dell is now taking orders for powerhouse Precision M4500 15.6-inch notebook
Posted on March 30, 2010 | No Comments
The Dell Precision M4500 is serious. Seriously powerful and expensive that is with the Core i7-920XM Extreme CPU and an Nvidia Quadro FX 1800m GPU along with a max of 16GB of RAM and dual SSD hard drives. But even the base $1,549 model still offers enough power to get most any task done with CPU cycles to spare.

Consumer Reports says Apple has the best tech support, Acer/Gateway/eMachines the worst
Posted on March 11, 2010 | No CommentsConsumer Reports has a new report on which computer company has the best tech support. Apple wins! That's what happens when the same company controls the hardware as well as the operating system (and several of the most prominent pieces of software). The highest ranking PC manufacturer is Dell for desktops and Lenovo for laptops.
