Of course the really big news today is Apple’s ultrathin notebook, the MacBook Air.   I have a four month old MacBook and now I feel ancient.

But there was another thin product I just learned about that has me even more excited.   A friend of mine noted my post on Sony OLED thin visualizations on Plaxo and pointed me to link for Dell’s new “Crystal.”

From the Dell website:  Tempered glass, highly polished metal tripod stand, unobtrusive connections, capacitive touch controls, integrated webcam, microphone and speakers, and a 22” HD panel helped
Dell Crystal take home the 2008 Best of Innovations Award at the International Consumer Electronics Show which recognizes the most innovative consumer electronics (CE) products in the industry’s hottest
product categories.

For more info see: Dell Crystal

I see one of these in my future.
