My new Dell Inspiron Mini 9 arrived while I was on the road – too late for this trip, but I’ll have it for future trips.
The smaller keyboard takes a little getting used to. The apostrophe is in a strange place and the right shift key is tiny. Other than that, it’s pretty damned cool.
I have it networked with our other computers and our main printer.
I don’t especially care for touchpads, so I bought a Logitech NX80 wireless notebook laser mouse that seems to work fine. I also bought a case for it so as to protect the gorgeous red finish.
It has an SD card reader, so I can shoot photos with my cameraphone, pop the card into the mini and import the photo. That’s what I did with the photo above.
Oh, and it has a built-in webcam.
Not a bad deal for $250.
