Wall Street Journal says Dell's mini netbook is finally going to be released this week. Some say Thursday and others Friday. Rumor has it that the price is under $400 to compete favorably with the eeePC, but that is higher than the $299 price that was previously hinted. There probably will be a range of prices based on operating system installed, drive size, webcam, etc. - will just have to wait until announcement is official.
Acer lowered the Aspire One to $329 (Linux version) almost in anticipation of Dell's release, but I keep reading about Wi-fi problems with the Aspire and Wi-fi is really the whole point of my buying a netbook. I hope my expectations for this new product are realized this week.
