Dell has announced a couple new laptop models today that are getting new Intel Core Solo 2 ULV CPUs to increase battery life and performance. We have seen one of the notebooks before when Dell first unveiled the 14z back in May 2009.

The 4-cell unit has a run time of four hours while the 6-cell offers 8-hours of use. Dell is also offering Express Charge 4 and 6-cell batteries that can recharge to 80% capacity in only an hour. The notebooks start at $599 and are available in America today.
