Dell’s Inspiron 910 support docs showing online, looks like an official release is coming

It looks like those leaked images of the “no function key” Dell Inspiron 910 were indeed accurate, the latest image (pictured above) comes courtesy of some newly released Dell support pages for the upcoming Inspiron 910.
Based on the image, and the docs we can now confirm that the Inspiron 910 will have just two LED’s, one for power and one for battery status. We can also confirm, with some disappointment that the keyboard will be slightly different than most are currently used to seeing, as it will not have the dedicated function keys. Of course, looking on the bright side, it could make for a nicer typing experience with the possibility of slightly larger keys.
Sadly there still has not been an official release date or price point announcement, but with the docs beginning to show up online, we can only imagine that it will be soon.

i can’t wait anymore, I’m counting the days until they finally release it….I think they’re working a little too hard for me to get the competitors one….. but ok…i I will wait…......

The next shipment of Acer One’s is this week and I really loved the Linpus Linux kiosk easy mode that my sister in law uses on hers. I found out how to get access to the underlying XFCE desktop and it rocks for advanced users too.
I’ve seen good things out of the Ubuntu Netbook Remix online (just type those three words in Youtube) and am curious about the 910’s battery since that is the One’s weak point… but school is starting and we need a second laptop soon.
$329 Acer One or wait more for the mythical Dell 910 Mini ???
