Photo gallery of the new thin laptop

Thinner than a regular CD case (9.9mm) Dell has just announced the Dell Adamo XPS after much tooing and throwing in a teaser campaign and Pocket-lint was hands on to snap some photos.
Yes it is thin, yes the keyboard tucks into the casing and yes you really do have to slide your finger to open it up.
Of course the tech specs are equally impressive, if you don't mind dumping the need for an Ethernet socket, CD drive or small powerpack (we are told it might get smaller before launch).
Specs include a 13.4-inch HD WLED screen, Intel Core 2 Duo ULV 1.4GHz processor, 4GB memory, 128GB SSD, wireless n and Bluetooth connectivity and DisplayPort, 2 USB ports and a headphone jack.
The payoff for that size? The battery will only last you 2 hours 36 minutes according to Dell.
As for the random "nine" on the back next to the name. It won't be there when it launches. We shot a production sample and Dell says it was testing something out, but watch as the rumour mill goes into overdrive suggesting a "nine" inch model is inbound.
The new model will cost $1799 and should be here in time for Christmas.
Check out our first look review of the Dell Adamo XPS laptop.
