    Would a new XPS notebook be released soon? I've been doing a little of research and the only notebook I'm interested in is the XPS. Any info (rumoured specs, possibility of a new design, if there's a webcam built-in, etc..) about it is also welcome. Thanks in advance! :)

    Last I heard, the latitudes should be out on March 28 or 29 according to the video conference.

    LOL, i highly doubt it. I don't think the XPS is going to happen until this summer or at least around the summer.

    Just so I know if i'm going crazy or not - did you ask about the latitudes or XPS? i have a bad habit of reading posts wrong.

    I was asking about the XPS. Oh wait, that makes you crazy doesn't it? lol sorry, couldn't resist. ;)

    So XPS this summer huh? How weird. Kinda coincide's with AMD's Turion X2 release doesn't it?

    That doesn't mean Dell is going to put in an Turion X2 in their new XPS lineup - I'm betting it's going to be Core Duo.

    Yeah dual core and sli graphics with bigger monitor (19inch uxga) would be a nice setup. ANd get rid of that blah! design for something cool like what they did with the Renegade.

    Whenever Nvidia releases Go 7900 GTX, Dell will announce the XPS M1710. According to Chaz, the Go 7900 was supposed to be released yesterday, but it seems that there was a delay...

    I'd say April.
