WIRED Store In NYC

WIRED Store, NYC

There doesn’t seem to be popup stores for either Dell or Intel this year. If there are, they suck at publicizing them! I was hoping there’d be one of them so I could try a pre-production model of the Dell Venue 8 7000. Looks like no such luck.

Dell Venue 8 7000 Delayed

Dell to launch thinnest Intel tablet at CES

Dell got back to us about the Dell Venue 8 7000 tablet following our recent article, in which we pointed up that it has yet to ship. The company said the tablet will officially launch at CES 2015.

It’s 6mm thin.

And the Hisense Vidaa Pad is — allegedly — 6.35mm thin. Would people be able to perceive a 0.35mm difference?

It’ll be the CPU performance that matters… and with that Intel CPU, the possibility of hacking it to Windows 10?
