I’ve just got my hands on one of the new Dell Netbooks and first impressions are very good. It is designed to be a portable Internet anywhere device, weighing in at a measly 990g and measuring 232×175x30 (that’s about 1/3 of the size of my Mac Book Pro) and includes built-in broadband, there’s a SIM slot behind the battery so no need for a protruding 3G dongle.

If you’re in the UK there are couple of ways you can get you hands on a free Dell Netbook. The first is to sign up for Pay monthly mobile broadband plan, which includes a “free” netbook.

However Vodafone are currently doing a promotion where Live Guy is travelling the UK and each day he has a couple to Netbooks (with included 3G subscription) to give away to people that can find him, his agenda is:

• Edinburgh Monday 17 November
• Glasgow Tuesday 18 November
• Newcastle Wednesday 19 November
• Liverpool Thursday 20 November
• Leeds Friday 21 November
• Manchester Saturday 22 November
• Birmingham Monday 24 November
• Cardiff Tuesday 25 November
• Bristol Wednesday 26 November
• Reading Thursday 27 November
• London Friday 28 November

You can track him down via his site, Twitter, Facebook, You Tube, Picasa and if I hear anything I’ll be sure to share it via my Twitter account.

Each day Live Guy has 3 Netbooks to give away in person, but if you can’t make it to any of the specific locations you can track him online for a chance to win. Further info and clues over on the Live Guy site, good luck.
