Black Dell Adamo spotted

Walking through the Mall today and spotted a Dell stand with a Black Adamo on display.  Took a few pics, too bad it was not powered so I couldn’t play with it.  The sales guy says it will retail more than AUD$3k.  Hmm….. It’s thinner than I expected, the keyboard could have been better I thought, felt a bit on the cheap side.  Nice machine overall.

Amazon Kindle DX

The big brother of the kindle have arrived, it’s called the kindle DX.  the only difference between this new DX and the original is size, at 9″ the new kindle can handle most standard whole page views without straining your eyes.  It’s also super slim at 1/3 of an inch.  But it does come at a cost of US$500.  That’s kinda pricey for a E-book reader I think.  I’ll stick with paper ones for now.  Check it out here.

Palm’s Next mobile set for AT&T?

Engadget has some news of Palm’s next mobile handset (codenamed Eos) going to AT&T running WebOS.  The specs looks fairly decent with most features but no wi-fi.  It has a smaller screen at 2.6″ and full qwerty keyboard.  I wish the screen was bigger tho, maybe at 3″, that should be perfect.  Check it out here.
