Dell Inspiron Mini 12 (1210) officially appears on Dell's site (specifications)

Published on 10/16/2008

The product page is not up (yet), but info have leaked via the official setup guide and the maintenance manual. I like the 12.1" format but we'll have to see how heavy it gets. It runs Ubuntu (Linux) or Windows Vista - although I wish that there was an XP option or XP drivers... Vista tend to suck on Netbooks. Here are the highlights:

• 12", 1280x800 display
• 1.3 Megapixel webcam
• 1.8" Hard disk (unknown capacity)
• Low-power 1.33 to 1.6Ghz Intel Atom CPU (512KB cache, 533Mhz FSB)
• 1GB RAM
• Intel GMA 500 graphics (HD video acceleration)
• 10/100 Ethernet
• WIFI B/G
• 3G option, (possibly WiMax too)
• VGA port
• 3-cell or 6-cell battery
• Ubuntu (linux) or Windows Vista
• Price: unknown

So, what do you think of having a 12.1" display in a netbook?
