As reported, Dell has made its Mini 5 tablet official but no details of the Android device has been announced. In order to know more about the device, Vietnamese site, tinhte.com has disassembled the Dell Mini 5. More of this gadget »

With the environment and sustainability firmly in mind the Dell Froot concept saves the planet courtesy two projectors: One for the virtual keyboard, and another for the monitor.

Designed by Pauline Carlos as part of a sustainability contest sponsored by Dell, the Froot also uses a colorful case that’s constructed out of a biodegradable starch-based polymer. As it’s a futuristic concept, the lack of a mouse is understabdable—we’ll no doubt be using our brains by then.

More seriously, Pico projectors are *almost* there, but not quite, otherwise I’d be asking why this is still just a concept

We have already covered the gaming netbook from Alienware, and CES 2010 gave attendees a chance to look at the M11x up close.

The M11x has an Intell Core 2 Duo processor and Nvidia GeForce GT 335M GPU. The screen is at 11 inches with a 720p HD display for 1336 x 768 resolution. The battery life is good for 3 hours of gaming time, and 6 hours of regular use. The wireless internet can be accessed via ordinary SIM card, and you should expect it out in February 2010.

Unfortunately, it looks like the $1000 price tag still applies.

Dell is back by bringing you the world’s smallest fully functional commercial desktop PC namely the OptiPlex 780 USFF. Adopting the Intel vPro technology, the machine sports an Intel Core 2 Duo processor, an integrated Intel GMA 4500 graphics card, up to 4GB RAM, a choice of either a 320GB HDD or 128GB SSD, an integrated power supply and Windows 7 OS. In terms of connectivity ports, it offers VGA, eSATA and DisplayPort. Price starts at $629.

You had to know Dell’s comically secretive product launch strategy would eventually break down, and here we go: although the company is teasing an "unnamed $450 Vostro" to US media, Dell Singapore has just gone ahead and launched the thing officially as the Vostro V13, complete with specs. Oops. While Dell PR tries to put out that fire, we can dance in the rubble and tell you that Dell’s putting everything it learned building the Adamo XPS to some more practical use in the .65-inch thick, sub-3.5-pound V13, which packs either a 1.2GHz Celeron, 1.3GHz Core 2 Duo or 1.4GHz Core 2 Solo with integrated X4500MHD graphics under that 13.3-inch screen. Sure, the design isn’t as wild as the Adamo XPS, but the extra thickness means that it can accommodate an Ethernet port, along with eSATA, USB, an SD card slot and even a freaking ExpressCard slot. All this for just a confirmed US$450 on the low end? Okay, sign up up. Hit the Dell Singapore link for more pics and a nice 360-degree view.

Dell’s slimmest laptop ever still isn’t shipping out to eager consumers, but at least the Win7-packin’ Adamo XPS is now configurable over on the outfit’s website. The base $1,799 configuration includes a 1.4GHz Core 2 Duo SU9400 CPU, a 128GB solid state drive, 13.4-inch WLED panel, 2 megapixel camera, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, GS45 integrated graphics, WiFi and a USB Ethernet adapter. Unfortunately, hardly any of the components are upgradable, but there are a few select upgrades available for those with the cheddar. The scary part? That December 22nd estimated ship date. Better spring for overnight and cross those toes!

It would appear those leaked and unintentional early peeks at Dell’s first foray into smartphones did not happen in Brazil and China by accident. Hans Erickson of Dell Latin America has announced the decision to "give priority" to those two countries, who will be first to experience the Mini 3i’s Android glory, with China receiving devices "in the coming days" and Brazil getting ‘em later this year. Interestingly, China Mobile will be making do without 3G, while Brazil’s Claro will be offering a 3G-enabled handset. Dell remains mum on pricing and the rest of the spec, though all the information so far indicates that Brazilians will be able to buy the same WiFi-packing FCC-certified 3iX handset that’s heading to the US. Either way, we’ve got another heavyweight’s presence in the smartphone market, and we’ll be even happier once we know what Dell’s value-add will be.
