Dell managed to let a few roadmap slides from their 2009-2010 netbook range slip out, where not only did they reveal the upcoming Dell Mini 11, but also updates to the existing Dell Mini 10.
The Dell Mini 10 will receive some extra features very soon. On April 17th the Mini 10 will get options for a 3G model, Vista, 250GB HDD, 6-cell battery, Internal TV Tuner and potentially a 1.86GHz Atom Z540. In May a new 1.6GHz Atom version will arrive, for a cheaper starting price of about $329.
From May 20th, we will see 2GB RAM options and the introduction of the “Red” color.
The Dell Mini 10 will then be updated once more in the second half of the year, with the introduction of Intel’s Pine Trail processors.
