Editor`s Review (Dell Mini 9)
We`ve known for some time that Dell was working on a Netbook-style laptop--the same kind of small, low-power, inexpensive system made popular by Asus and the Eee PC line. And even though there are not many surprises in the new Inspiron Mini 9, it`s still an excellent example of the form, without any of the deal-breakers (older CPU, not enough storage space, hard-to-use touch pad) that have kept other Netbooks from being more universally useful. Dell`s entry into the Netbook market means it`s time to take these low-cost, low-power PCs seriously. The Inspiron Mini 9 is an excellent example of the form, if not radically different from the competition.

Dell`s first mini-notebook is a solid system at a solid price
The Mini 9 includes two handy additions that make it stand above the competition. First, accessible through the Start menu, is Dell`s Support Center--a one-stop app for system information and performance tweaking. When you`re online the Support Center also serves as a glorified link hub to different parts of Dell`s support site for manuals, patches, and quick fixes. Second is a free, base-level account (good for 2GB of storage) with Box.Net`s online file storage service. Dell has crafted a solid mini-laptop that`s good for kids and has plenty to offer anyone looking for an on-the-go system. The Inspiron Mini 9 isn`t perfect, but it does offer a terrific design and a good price. I would have a tough time choosing this over Acer`s Aspire One, but Dell`s first venture into the world of mini-notebooks has produced a worthy competitor.

Dell Inspiron Mini 9 Review
The Dell Inspiron Mini 9 falls well short of the MSI Wind and the HP 2133 Mini-Note because it doesn`t offer an extended battery and large-enough storage options. For the average person who doesn`t want to lug a 5-to-6 pound laptop (with its case and AC adapter) through airport security just to check e-mail, surf, and do some light Office tasks, a UMPC is a very viable solution. For now, that solution is the MSI Wind, but as prices come down, I`m expecting Dell to make this a close race.

Dell Inspiron Mini 9 review
Since Asus sparked the ultra-portable craze, other laptop manufacturers have been queuing up to enter the fray. A few weeks ago, Dell dropped in with its own take, the Dell Inspiron Mini 9, which promises all the typical netbook light-weight and low-cost construction, but with the quality build and after sales care that has made Dell so popular. With the keyboard as the only serious blemish on the Mini 9`s record, Dell has come up with a very worthy netbook offering. It`s solid, robust and good looking to boot.

Dell Inspiron Mini 9 review
If you want a "connected" netbook then the Dell Inspiron Mini 9 on Vodafone is your best bet right now. Available for free on some attractive contracts, it`s the only netbook to offer integrated HSDPA. That it`s found inside a cohesively designed, attractive and highly portable chassis only adds to the appeal.
