Dell Vostro V13 takes styling cues from Adamo but not the steep price tag

Oh boy, look at this. Dell is apparently porting the entire super-thin Adamo idea to its more affordable line of Vostro business machines.

A case in point is the Vostro V13, a soon to be officially announced 13-inch notebook that's just 0.65 inches thick and weighs less than 3.5 pounds. Best of all, prices start at $450 dollars will start. If this turns out to be true, it will be interesting to watch the development.

There is a product page at the top of Dell's Singapore site and here is a marketing video of Dell's Sam Burd talking about the V13.

According to the product page, the specifications include the following:

Intel Core 2 Duo SU7300, Core 2 Solo SU3500 or Celeron 743 ProcessorsWindows 7, Vista or UbuntuUp to 4GB DDR3 RAMIntel 4500MHD graphics13.3-inch LED-backlit screen at 1366×768160GB to 320GB SATA hard diskOptional external optical driveSix Cell battery (unfortunately not replaceable)802.11n WLAN, Bluetooth, Gigabit Ethernet

No word on when this will be out in the US, but the guy in the video seems to be hinting at an announcement in the near future. CES is a possibility.
