Dell has announced the MacBook Air and Voodoo Envy competitor, the Inspiron Mini 12 netbook, in India. Mini 12 measures under 1.1-inch and is just 0.2 inch thicker than MacBook Air and VooDoo Envy. Dell's Mini 12 will be retailed through Croma Electronic Megastore branches. Dell hasn't announced the price of the Dell Mini 12.
Dell Inspiron Mini 12 is powered by the 1.6GHz Intel Atom Z530, and has a 533MHz FSB, a Intel US15W chipset, and a 1GB DDR2 533MHz and 80GB 4200RPM HDD. Other conventional features included are WiFi (802.11b/g), a 1.3 megapixel webcam, and Bluetooth.
This Mini 12 runs on the Windows XP Home edition instead of Windows Vista offered in the US. It's uncertain whether Dell will offer the Ubuntu version of the Mini 12 in India. Its primary 3-cell battery lasts about 3 hours, while the 6-cell option offers approximately 6.5 hours of battery life.
Dell also offers online storage of 2GB on Box.net to every Mini 12 buyer. The Mini 12 is ideal for web-savvy students and business executives who're looking for a slim netbook.
Expect the Mini 12 to arrive by the end of January 2009.
