Dell unveils thin and light Latitude Z notebook   Dell Latitude Z

Dell has just unveiled their newest flagship business notebook, the Latitude Z, a 16-incher that measures only a little over half-an-inch thick and weighs only 4.4 pounds. The Latitude Z is a pretty swank kit, with an attractive angled design built with premiummaterials, while delivering on productivity with a choice of Ultra Low Voltage Intel Core 2 Duo processors for a longer battery life.

The rest of the spec includes up to 4GBs of DDR3 memory, up to two solid state drives for storage, Wi-fi and Bluetooth for connectivity, and integrated Intel GMA 4500MHD graphics for powering the 16-inch, 1600 x 900 WLED display. The Latitude Z also adds a backlit chiclet-style keyboard, a multi-touch pad that supports gestures, a fingerprint reader for security, and touch-sensitive controls beside the screen that act as hotkeys for enabling different functions. A 2MP webcam with autofocus (that can also be used as a document scanner) and an external optical drive also comes with the package.

Two configurations for the Latitude Z are currently available: a $1,999 package that includes a 1.4GHz Core 2 Duo processor, 2GBs of memory, a 64GB SSD, and external DVD drive, and an upscale $2,159 variant that comes with a faster 1.6GHz processor, 4GBs of memory, up to 256GBs of SSD storage, and an external Blu-ray drive.

Dell also offers a unique charging pad that allows the laptop to charge its battery wirelessly—by simply placing the laptop onto the pad for a totally wireless workspace. It’s a pretty cool add-on, but that of course ties the laptop to the charging pad, which would be plugged in anyway.

    So far, this is the best laptop I've ever seen and it can be a par with HP envy. With the drooling specs, it's simply amazing primarily because it has some new innovations like the wireless cooling pad which is really amazing. The style and the way the laptop was crafted was really “OMG” – classic yet trendy. Then again with the release of these laptops, I'm pretty sure that it will sell a lot!

    Great post guys! Hoping to read more!
