Dell 9.99mm Adamo XPS Ultraportable Teaser 9.99mm Adamo XPS to Take on the MacBook Air as the Thinnest Laptop in the World

Apple's Macbook Air managed to set a new standard for slim notebooks,
but now, Dell is breaking that record with their new Dell Adamo XPS
design concept. As thin as a finger but slightly thicker than a MacBook
Pro's display, at only 9.99 mm (that's about 0.39-inch) the new Dell
Adamo XPS ultraportable is only half the size of the Macbook Air, which
measures 1.74mm, and thinner than the Apple iPhone 3GS.

Part of their teasing campaign to get people drooling, Dell released a
preview of the device today. Besides being very thin, the Dell Adamo XPS
ultraportable also features a stylish and clean design. Other than
looking like something out of the future, word is that the neat machine
weighs around two pounds and features a full keyboard that flips away
from the display.

A notebook this thin would surely have to counter many challenges
including heat and battery life, but Dell seems to be serious about
pushing the limits of technology with this design.

Although no other info has been released concerning a release date or
prices, the super-skinny notebook got a special teaser page for
interested people to signup for updates.
