Leaked: Dell XPS M1530
It seems as though Dell has leaked some critical info on their new XPS M1530 notebooks and it seems lean and mean. If sources are correct, we can expect the M1530 to be released in November – I wonder how many customers will try to cancel their recent Dell laptop order to get this one.

Despite rumors floating around concerning the Google Phone, word has it that this rumor is unsubstantiated as Google is just concentrating on software that has Windows Mobile in its sights, since the company wants to leverage the cellphone’s advertising potential. Google will also aim to stay true to its mantra of doing no evil by not charging phone makers with a licensing fee for the software unlike Microsoft. Guess Windows has ousted Palm’s obsolete operating system, will we see the tables turned on Microsoft with this new software from Google?
While the new Zune does not have that large a userbase as the iPod, there are still enough Zune users out there to create a profitable accessory market. Among the new accessories released to complement the new Zune is the Zune Car Pack. This device helps you detect the best station for broadcasting your Zune automatically while charging it as you drive around. It can store a couple of different presets and features a dashboard grip pad. Interested Zune owners will be able to pick up the Zune Car Pack this November 13 for $79.99.
Researchers at the University of Tokyo have developed a flexible plastic electronic sheet which can be embedded within tables, walls, and floors. It can be used to form spontaneous connections with gadgets placed on them courtesy of plastic transistors and copper wires that snake through the sheets, allowing data transfer using this new method. This solution could potentially signal the end for the need to plug gadgets into each other, which is always a good thing. No idea on whether this concept will make it commercially or not, but it is interesting enough to toy around with that could potentially change the future.
Alaska Airlines already has plans to starttesting their new WiFi service on a Boeing 737 when spring rolls around, although that move is rather baffling. Are signals in the air much better in the spring? Why miss the crucial holiday season that could see passengers flock to your airline just because you offer WiFi service during a flight? Hopefully all goes well in the test, and the management had better include some sort of power outlet at each seat so that passengers in long haul flights would be able to finish downloading that torrent before reaching their destination.
