The story "Instant-on Dell desktop to debut next week," which posted to the wire Wednesday, misstated the brand of Dell PCs that will get the instant-on feature. It is Dell's Latitude laptop line. The story also implied in the fourth graph that there may be two names for the instant-on system, but there is just one -- Latitude On. Also, a Dell spokeswoman said the system will be coming "soon" but not next week.
The headline and first and fourth paragraphs have been corrected and now read as follows:
Instant-on Dell laptop to debut soon
Consumers will soon get their first look at Dell's new instant-on system for Latitude laptops, a company executive said Wednesday in Shanghai.
Dell is promising "multi-day" battery life for new models of its Latitude laptops. The instant-on feature is called Latitude On. Clarke said only that Latitude On was "coming soon."
