Dell Launches Latitude XT Tablet

11 Dec, 2007, 4:30 pm IST | by Jayesh Mansukhani | Notebooks

In a much awaited and frankly way overdue move, Dell has finally introduced its first tablet the Latitude XT. This new machine has 12.1 inch convertible screen, comes with Intel Core 2 Solo and Duo ULV processors, 120 GB hard drive with an option of swapping in a 64 GB SSD, an ATI Radeon X1250 UMA integrated graphics chipset and with extended batteries can reach up to 9.5 hrs of battery life.


The Latitude XT is also unique in the sense that it is the industry’s only sub-four-pound convertible tablet with pen and capacitive touch capability. Capacitive technology senses the touch of a finger with no pressure required for the system to recognize input. It is also the forerunner to emerging multi-touch capabilities that allow the use of more than one finger for tasks such as zoom and repositioning a picture.

"We are listening and aim to exceed customers’ expectations," said Margaret Franco, director, Dell Product Group. "Until now, customers have been forced to make tradeoffs in tablet functionality to have usable systems. With capacitive touch technology, the Latitude XT will revolutionize the way customers interact with their systems, allow customers to take full advantage of tablet technology and enable customers to get more done with greater speed and precision."

The Latitude XT is Energy Star 4.0-compliant and will be available in January 2008 for a price of $2,400 upwards.
