DELL XPS M1640 P9600 16.0-inch with Intel Core 2 Duo P9600 2.66 GHz FSB 1066 MHz, RAM 4 GB DDR3, HDD 320 GB 7200 RPM, ATI Radeon HD3670, 16.0 inch WUXGA 1920×1080

Dell might have axed the Mini 12, but it seems like there’s quite a few models waiting to fill the void — we just saw the Inspiron 11z go on sale this morning, and now there’s a mysterious link for an “Inspiron Mini 13″ showing up on the Dell Canada site. We’re assuming that means the hot new Inspiron 13 that launched in Singapore last month is about to make its North American debut with Mini branding — and although calling a 13-inch machine with a 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo and ATI Mobility Radeon HD4330 graphics a “Mini” seems a little odd, we can’t say we’d be surprised if it came to pass. We’re digging for more, keep a sharp eye.

Dell may have ditched the 12-inch Mini netbook, but for those still looking for something a touch larger than 10-inches, there’s the all-new Inspiron 11z. Strictly classified as a “thin-and-light,” this three-pound machine measures in at just one-inch thick and ships with a 1.2GHz Celeron 723 processor, a 1,366 x 768 LED-backlit panel, 2GB of DDR2 RAM, a 250GB (5400RPM) SATA hard drive, GS45 integrated graphics, WiFi, a 3-cell battery and nary an optical drive to speak of. There’s also a 1.3 megapixel camera, twin stereo speakers, an Ethernet port, three USB sockets, a 3-in-1 multicard reader and an HDMI output, though we get the feeling Windows Vista won’t be too happy with the hardware. Thankfully, you can drop your $399 now and snag Windows 7 on the cheap here in just a few months.
