Although Dell’s plans of upgrading their Alienware offerings to Ivy Bridge does not include the widely popular M11x gaming notebook, it looks like there may still be hope to see an updated version of it come out soon after all.

Information received by the guys over at Maximum PC indicate that Dell is working on possibly rebranding the Alienware M11x and putting it under either the XPS or Inspiron product line. When that happens, putting out an updated M11x with Ivy Bridge just might be in the cards.

At the same time, Dell is reportedly also looking to launch Alienware Ultrabooks some time later this year, a move that could really put Ultrabooks on the road to mass market adoption.

All of this information is essentially speculation at this point, and the identity of the unnamed source being cited in Maximum PC‘s report is unknown. Perhaps we’ll all here more about this in the coming weeks or months, if and when information becomes available directly from Dell itself.

It looks like a feature that was supposed to be available out of the box on day 1 was just added to all available units of the Dell Inspiron Mini 10 all across the world. This high-res screen option was also introduced in the recently launched Dell Inspiron Mini 10 netbooks in Japan, with the Intel Atom Z520 chips. It costs a $35 upgrade from the regular Dell Mini 10 configuration, but to some it may be well worth it. The options for configuration are available on Dell’s web site, linked below.

Since it first went up for pre-order, I’m sure some of you would like to know how exactly the Dell Inspiron Mini 10 functions in real life. Good thing Laptop has already finished reviewing their Dell Mini 10, and has shared their thoughts about the said netbook in a full-sized review. Overall, they’ve deemed the netbook good, especially when it comes to text input with the slightly larger keyboard it’s got than most other netbooks. The built-in HDMI port pretty much becomes an accessory because its use of an Atom Z530 processor couple with Intel’s GMA 500 graphics aren’t enough to handle 720p video playback properly. Otherwise, it’s a netbook worth taking a look at, if the odd trackpad doesn’t throw you off in the first place.

NetbookNews.de has done a comparison photo shoot between the Samsung NC10 and Samsung NC20. If that unboxing video still wasn’t enough to tide you over, I highly suggest you check out NetbookNews.de’s gallery. They’ve even thrown in a little bit of the Dell Inspiron Mini 12 for good measure. What’s evident is that the Samsung NC20 is far larger than the NC10, though both seem to sport the same keyboard, and same material used in their chassis. The arrangement of the ports on the side have also changed a bit from the Samsung NC10 to the Samsung NC20, but overall it still looks very user-friendly. Meanwhile, it appears as if the Dell Mini 12 is a bit larger than the NC20. But they’re still definitely portable, more so when you pit them against similar-sized lappies from other manufacturers. Don’t take my word for it, see all the photos in the comparison gallery for yourself.

Dell recently held a press conference in France in which it officially launched a 3G version of the Dell Mini 10. The photo you see above was taken by the guys from over at Netbook3G, and other photos comparing it to the Asus Eee PC 901 Go are also available on their site. The absence of a button on that trackpad is very evident, though it doesn’t look like it’s going to be much of a problem. If you a refresher as to the Dell Mini 10′s specs:

• Atom Z530 CPU
• 1GB RAM
• Multi-touch Trackpad
• 160GB HDD (No SSD models currently)
