Dell Mini 10 offered as Subsidized netbook in Jamaica
Claro Jamaica, a cellphone carrier of Jamaica, is now offering a FREE Dell Mini 10 to its customers who are signing up for 3GB, $34 per month package (+$67 fee). You need to enroll yourself to a minimum of 3 year contract. The Mini will work on the Claro’s 3G network.
So, for 3 years, you will be paying 34 x 12 x 3 = $1224. Delightful plan, but certainly not the most amusing TOTAL amount :)
Note: If you exceed 3GB allocation, you will billed $3 for each extra MB downloaded. So, keep an eye on the bandwidth being used

Dell Mini 10V Netbook ‘perfect’ for Twitter and Facebook: But How?
Somebody at Dell is (trying to) play with the innocent people. On the Dell Mini 10v’s page, Dell has a model which, according to Dell is ‘perfect for twittering’.
How can a netbook be perfect for twittering if it cannot boot up instantaneously? Netbooks, although are very portable devices, but they cannot replace mobile phones which are actually the perfect devices for this purpose. Dell Mini 10V is a fine netbook, but not perfect for social networking for sure.

Dell adopts Greener approach – Mini 10 and Mini 10v netbooks with Bamboo Packaging
Dell is going eco-friendly with their netbooks as they are now offering a greener packaging for the Dell Mini 10 and Dell Mini 10v netbooks. The Bamboo, famous for its incredible strength will protect and hold the netbook as-nicely-as its conventional packaging. Also, the outer box is recyclable.

Multi-touch Dell Mini 10 Netbook as Stantum Slate PC
A new slate PC by Stantum has been unveiled which is actually a 10.1-inch Dell Mini 10 presented as a slate PC. It has a multi-touch, resistive multi-touch display supports 10 points, finger and stylus input, runs Windows 7 as OS and consumes less power. Webcam, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 1 USB port have been removed from the Slate PC which might limit its appeal. Who would buy a tablet without built-in WiFi radio in 2009? Not a brilliant idea for sure.
Nothing could be known about its price.
We sure that folks at Stantum must have taken some inspiration from the guy that modded his Dell Mini 9 into a tablet and later installed an accelerometer in it
Sprint to offer broardband-enabled netbooks in 5 cities
Sprint soon will be the latest US wireless carrier that will sell wireless broadband-enabled netbooks. The company has joined hands with Best Buy and HP this summer only, where they offered HP Mini 110 for $0.99 (for a contract of 2 year). But apparently, this offer is not valid now.
This program will be available starting from November 1 in Baltimore, Indianapolis, Minneapolis, Phoenix and San Francisco. Holistic launch depends on the success of trial, which would be this year or the coming year.
Rumor has it that Dell Mini 10 will be offered to the customers for $199 ($100 mail-in rebate) and $60/month. Sounds rather expensive to us!
Ubuntu 9.10: Fix Graphics in Dell Mini 10 – slow NBR launcher?
If you have installed Ubuntu 9.10 karmic koala on your Dell Mini 10, you must have noticed that your netbook does NOT runs at its native resolution and defaults to 800×576 and the NBR launcher appears to be very slow.
You can switch to accelerated graphics, but we would prefer you not to use NBR launcher (switch to Desktop Mode) if you are a Mini 10 user.
