After its Inspiron Mini 9 the Dell company released the Inspiron Mini 12 netbook on October 27th. The Mini 12, is very similar in appearance to it’s little brother, the Dell Mini 9. The Mini 12 of has a larger keyboard, and of course a larger 12-inch display, compared to the Mini 9’s 8.9-inch display.


The Dell Mini 12 will be available in November with a starting price of $600. The entry-level Mini 12 will include a 40GB hard drive, a 3-cell battery and a 1.3GHz Intel Atom Z520 processor. Dell claims this configuration will get about three-hours of battery life.

Other versions of the Dell Mini 12 will come with a 6-cell battery that will run for up to seven hour and a 1.6Ghz Intel Atom Z530 processor and either a 60GB or 80GB hard drive. Vista will be the only choice initially, but Dell plans on offering a Ubuntu version and Windows XP version in the near future.
