Dell axes its Mini 12 netbook, preps 'thin and light' Mini 11 ULV?




From APC Mag -

After dropping its Mini 9, Dell appears to be phasing out the Mini 12 as well as the latter has disappeared from several international Dell websites. But as the above roadmap shows, the timing is in line with the company's netbook roadmap.

The Mini 12 was the first to blur the distinction between 12" notebooks and 10" netbooks but unfortunately its larger screen apparently caused it to be a collateral damage of Microsoft’s OEM netbook restrictions. Its rumored replacement is a Mini 11 codenamed Argos, a low-cost ‘thin and light’ Windows 7 notebook with an 11.6" screen.
