November 2008 is judgment day for XT2, the next Dell Tablet PC

Delllatitudext2renderWell that was quick. Dell has only offered the Latitude XT Tablet PC for two months and already there’s a refresh in the pipeline. Engadget pegs the XT2 to appear this November with an updated chipset, an eSATA interface in lieu of a USB port (don’t worry, there’s still two USBs to spare), and the possibility of an integrated optical drive. I’m thinking the lack of an optical on the current XT isn’t holding back sales; it’s the starting price in the $2,500 and up range. Unfortunately, there’s no gleans of information on a potential price. If Dell continues to cater to the enterprise, I expect you won’t be able to multi touch XT2 for under two-grand. Any takers that 2009 will bring XT3, rise of the multi-touch machines?(via GottaBeMobile)
