Dell Fills Out Their Netbook Line with the Mini 10

"Dell has just served up its Mini 10 netbook, complete with an "edge-to-edge" 720p 10-inch display, a built-in TV tuner (!), integrated 3G WWAN / GPS, multi touch support and an Atom Z530 CPU. Moreover, you'll find an "edge-to-edge" keyboard (no wasted space, we guess), a gesture-sensing touchpad and expanded design studio choices."
Sweet, looks like Dell has thrown in everything except the kitchen sink on this one. Plus I'm thinking the 10 inch netbook ends up being the sweet spot for netbooks, so it makes sense for Dell to get this size in addition to their 8.9 and 12 inch offerings. I'm really surprised we have not seen more devices with built in TV tuners. Perhaps once the US gets through the digital transition, things will change.
