Dell has just launched their latest notebook, the Studio 14z. The 14z is equipped with: a 14-inch display with a 16:9 HD aspect ratio, Nvidia 9400M graphics, up to 500GB of HDD storage, up to 5GB of DDR3 RAM, and also has options for a 6-cell or an 8-cell battery, and a couple of Core 2 Duo CPUs. Unfortunately, there are no options for a ULV CPU and the Studio 14z does not have an optical drive. Anyways, another other option that is also available is for the display, which lets you choose a (720p) 1,366 x 768 resolution or a (900p)1,600 x 900 resolution. The Dell Studio 14z is just 1.2-inches thick and it weighs just about as much as the Adamo. It is now available on Dell's official website for a base price of $649 USD.

The HTC Touch Pro 2 - number 2 on my smartphone list - is now available on a couple of online European retailer websites. It's going for around $800 USD online and that's without 3G, since it is being sold in Europe and not here for the time being. On a side note, I love the Touch Pro 2's keyboard - compared to the N97's.

In addition to this news, I was also talking with a Telus employee 2 nights ago. We already know that Telus will be selling the HTC Touch Pro 2, so I was just looking out for any additional information I could dig out. The employee told me that they'd have the HTC Touch Pro 2 by Christmas time, so we'll see when it gets its initial release.

Update: New news about the HTC Touch Pro 2 popped up on July 5th. The HTC Touch Pro 2 will hit Telus on July 21st!
