Updated: Dell Jumps into the $99 Netbook Game

Following the Acer/RadioShack $99 netbook that debuted on Thursday night, our own Cisco Chang spotted an interesting deal on DealCatcher.com: buy a selected notebook or desktop, and get a Dell Mini 9 UMPC for just $99.

We can't link directly to the deal, as it hits a Dell configuration page. But go here and scroll down to the "Dell Inspiron Mini 9 UMPC with select PC purchase" deal, and the links below. The option is good for the Studio 15 and Studio 17 notebooks, the XPS 1330 and XPS 1530 notebooks, and the XPS 430 desktop.
