Dell XPS 13 Ultrabook gets updated with Ivy Bridge, optional touchscreen

File this under things we could've sworn happened already: Dell is updating its nine-month-old XPS 13 Ultrabook with third-generation Core (read: Ivy Bridge) processors. What's more, in keeping with other trends sweeping the PC industry, Dell is now offering the 13 with an optional touchscreen -- you know, to make it a little more Windows 8-friendly. While the rest of the company's Win 8 lineup isn't shipping until October 26th now, the refreshed XPS 13 should already be live on Dell's site, with the same starting price of $1,000.
