After more than 25 years as a pioneer and leader in the mobile industry, Nokia will bring its rich mobility heritage and knowledge to the PC world with the new, Windows based, Nokia Booklet 3G.

Powered by the efficient Intel Atom processor, the Nokia Booklet 3G delivers impressive performance with up to 12 hours of battery life, enabling people to leave their power cable behind and still be connected and productive. Delivering the rich experience of a full-function PC inside an ultra-portable aluminum chassis, the new mini-laptop weighs 1.25 kilograms, measures slightly more than two centimeters thin, and has the features one would expect from the world’s leading mobile device manufacturer. A broad range of connectivity options – including 3G/ HSPA and Wi-Fi – gives consumers high speed access to the Internet, including Nokia’s broad suite of Ovi services, and allows them to make the most of every moment and every opportunity.

Dell’s design crew has flexed their muscles and released the Dell Adamo — a super thin (.65-nches thick at it’s thickest point) laptop aimed squarely at Apple’s MacBook Air.

Adamo’s stylish features include a chassis milled from a single piece of aluminum, like the MacBook Air; a scalloped backlit keyboard, an edge-to-edge glass display, and a choice of onyx or pearl colors

The baseline Adamo version includes a low-power 1.2-GHz Intel Core 2 Duo SU9300 processor and a more expensive model with a 1.4-GHz Core 2 Duo SU9400 chip. Both processors fall short of tehe Air’s 1.6-GHz Core 2 Duo and 1.86-GHz Core 2 Duo configurations.

The Air also has a more powerful graphics with the Nvidia GeForce 9400M graphics processor versus Adamo’s Intel GS45 integrated graphics.

The starting price is $1,999, which is more than the Air, which starts at $1,799.

Dell has clearly failed to deliver a competitive or ground breaking product.
