    For anyone waiting to buy a Mini 9 or Mini 12, the price of the Mini 9 is now $299 and the Mini 12 is $399. I think this is going to make the Mini 12 a much better offering for those that might need a little bit more screen and hard drive. It is not nearly as bad now as it was when it first came out.

    Dammit, prices in Australia for the mini 9 and 12 are 370 and 572 USD respectively. Of course things in Australia are always expensive anyways..

    Nice!!! Thanks for posting this! I really like the idea of a mini 12, might not work for me though since I am looking for a notebook to write on. ;)

    Awesome! Congrat's :D

    When is your ESD? (I always ask that) :eek: :D

    And, can we get a small review and pic's when you receive it, and are used to it, and such?? ;) :cool:


    Cin ;) :)

    I just saw the techbargains post, Mini 12 for $400! It seems that they were listening to the public. This should be a hit. The 12" factor is great for those who don't need the purse size and at this price...wow.

    This is a much more reasonable price for a netbook.

    I believe it will arrive on the 27th or the 2nd. I got the three cell battery. Hopefully it should last at least 3 hours :(. That is what I am hoping for. I will post a review of it when I get it. I got it pretty cheap with EPP :).

    Oh that's great news..hopefully it will ship before the ESD given to you!

    I can't wait to see your review/pics! :D Yes, EPP usually has some good deals, that's the only way I deal with Dell purchases, thru EPP :D
