No Ubuntu Linux Dell Inspiron Mini 9 for Australia :-(
At work we’ve been interested in the Dell Inspiron Mini 9 (Dell’s answer to the eeePC), especially as everywhere you go you’ll read about it being shipped with Ubuntu Linux, which was great news.
Unfortunately I’m sad to say that my sources in Dell have told me that it’s only going to be available in Australia with Windows XP, no Linux version for Australia.

Dell not giving a Linux option isn’t really that unexpected. Hp, Lenovo and plenty of others have done the same.

The sad thing is that they are happy to sell it in the USA, just not here down under.
