Dell’s Business Product Group General Manager, and Sr. VP Jeff Clarke announced in the short video above that was posted to the Direct2Dell blog. Better get ready folks, Dell is making the move with a very thin & sleek convertible Tablet PC, and is doing it with its corporate-focused Latitude line of computers. This will bring standardization and a commitment of an 18 month lifecycle for the device when it comes out this fall.
So it seems that one of the most popular convertible mini-laptops has gained WWAN hardware in one of the base configs. This is great news for any mobile warrior, as the HSDPA option, really adds great connectivity in a growing list of cities across North America as well as Europe.
The only thing that could make this device better in my mind is little more powerful processor. A faster hard drive would also be nice along with a 2GB memory option to boot. Of course, this would impact battery life significantly, so it’s a big trade off to do that. In this case, I’ll take the uber-mobility and flexibility that the p1610 brings to the table in place of a Core 2 Duo powerhouse that is offered by many Tablet PC manufacturers.
Still, this device is on my short list for 2007 – sometime this spring I would think.
