Dell Adamo promises to be world's thinnest laptop

Engadget also reveals Dell is working on a special notebook named Adamo, this model will be marketed as world's thinnest laptop. This model will have a black and silver color scheme, and it will be a rival to Apple's MacBook Air.

According to the gadget site, the Dell Adamo notebook will arrive in February 2009 or later. Some more details can be read at the NY Times:

But most telling of all might have been the reaction of Michael Tatelman, Dell’s vice president in charge of consumer sales and marketing, to my question about whether or not Dell had an Air-like product in store. Mr. Tatelman’s mouth gaped open and his eyes darted away from my face.

If looks could reveal product dimensions, then I’d guess that Dell’s going even thinner and lighter than Apple.

After a couple of moments, Mr. Tatleman said, “I think we need to get some iconic products out there, so people associate Dell’s brand with other things.” Namely, that’s goodbye to clunky, and hello to sleek.
