So this is the first 4.8″ capacitive Android tablet, to be released at 0 or more (with unlocked 3G) according to rumors. Dell has been working on this for a while as Michael Dell first showed it to Techcrunch at Davos in January.

I can’t wait to get my hands on the Streak. Dell did an awesome job customizing Android. I like the full QWERTY keyboard with a number pad. Really happy the Market is included in this. All it needs is 2.2. However, 1.6 isn’t that bad.
When it finally ships in the USA, I hope there’s a model without the contract like O2 offers. That’d be nice.
@K2MDL no it’s not. I’m typing this Youtube comment on it right now.
Dont bother with the Archos 5 IT – it is a REALLY BAD piece of kit.
being able to show all vid formats (rmvb, flv, avi, vob, wmv, iso, etc) at 1080p without errors + hdmi out should be a standard.
@TS7019 Archos 5 Internet Tablet is $249 in Radio Shack and has been released for more than 9 months now.
Good quick review. This device looks promising. I would prefer a lower price point, a mini-USB port, and the latest Andriod. I think this device would be good as a personal organizer, entertainment, and limited productivity. As for using it as a phone, I am not a heavy cell phone user so this would be okay. I’ll wait to see what the 7in version will be like before I buy.
Dell did announce 2.2 for the streak it will probably be released after a month of the official release date
