    Yojr, read through the post.. Nothing stands out about the vostros. Will it be in the Dell Small Business section? What is the main difference between it and the 1520? Does it has a camera and a fingerprint reader? Just curious. Willing to wait for it.

    Release date is July 12th... They are replacing the Inspiron in the Small business area. There are really just an inspiron but all black. Same components and everything. internally they are the same. They will not have anything extra that the new inspirons currently have

    If you check around page 30 on that post, I think I listed the specs of the Inspirons along side the vostros

    Does anyone have images of the Vostros? I'm interested in the color difference and what it will actually look like to the eye...

    YoJr, you mean the keyboard is basically all black, and the outside is all black. Is that the only difference?

    Thanks Yojr. The name sounds cool. Vostros.. Plus a black keyboard. Might be worth the wait.

    12th is not too bad. Dell released the 1420 1520 1720 & XPS 1330 on a Tuesday. Also, YoJr mentioned the 12th of July also.

    I guess the consensus is they'll be 100pc identical to Inspirons? Sure a business model wouldn't have an added fingerprint reader available?

    Maybe they will add in a fingerprint reader, since it's a business model.
