Ohh..This looks very *interesting*.

Looking forward to more information. I like the XPS line.

That seems extremely thin. Looks interesting though.

I hope it has a CD drive. I hope it has more than one USB port. I hope it has a removable battery.

...

Actually, I'll just sum this up a little better. I hope it is better than the Macbook Air. That would make an awesome ultraportable.

Teaser for a 9.99mm thick notebook goes up on 9/9/09.

I wonder how long they were sitting on the announcement.

Interesting, looks like they abandoned the square edges (and cooling holes).

In case anyone needs a benchmark, 9.99mm is a little less than the thickness of a pinky.

It's also, I believe, thinner than the iPhones. Highly likely that this will be using an Atom, since such a thin profile really constricts what freedom Dell has to implement some sort of cooling system.

My mouth is watering, if only because I'm really interested in how they engineered this kind of product.
