For anyone looking for a netbook, here's word of a deal coming from Dell:
Dell via Gizmodo wrote:If you were interested in the Dell Mini 10, Dell's latest netbook catered to playing back 720p video, it'll be available starting at $400 later this month. Specs include:

• choice of Z520 or Z530 Atom processor
• 1GB RAM
• 1.3 megapixel webcam
• HDMI out
• 802.11g Wi-Fi
• 3-cell battery
• 160GB 5400rpm hard drive
• 4-in-1 memory card reader
• multiple colors (Obsidian Black, Alpine White, Promise Pink, Cherry Red, Ice Blue and Jade Green)
• Windows XP, Ubuntu to come later

You'll notice that the planned system does not include either Bluetooth or the promised 720p display, which is a bit odd. But those features, along with a TV Tuner, GPS and 3G connectivity are all planned as options "down the road."

All that and no SSD?

Doesn't look too bad I guess. Looks like you get a decent amount for $400. The lack of bluetooth is what surprises me....
