Get A Dell Streak 5 For $99: With Purchase Of $699 Or More

Posted by Jason Lee in "Android News" @ 08:30 PM

Now I wish I had a reason to buy a new computer. Right now Dell is running a promotion where you can get an unlocked Dell Streak 5 for only $99 when you make a PC of $699 or more. That's a pretty good deal providing you were already going to purchase a new laptop or something. I wouldn't mind having a Streak laying around for an extra phone. Any of you already thinking about buying a new PC from Dell going to take advantage of this offer?

How Many Leaks Does It Take To Get To The Center Of A Dell Android Tablet?

"Dell's still calling this a Mobile Internet Device, but you can call it by any of its codenames: Looking Glass, M02M, iPad eviscerator, they're all in here."

After a fairly constant trickle of news I'd say its a pretty good bet that we might hear something at CES about those Dell 7 and/or 10 inch tablets we heard about so very long ago. The first leak was strait from the Wi-Fi Alliance certifying a new Dell "Mobile Internet Device". This news was quickly followed up by the leak of the TV ad treatment. If all of that wasn't enough for you now we have the device taking a walk though the FCC.

This is shaping up to be one of the nicer Android tablets out there. I want an Android tablet but am really not sure how much I would use it. I have a netbook sitting here collecting dust already. I've been tempted by the sub $200 Android tablets but the reviews of those have appealed to my better judgement and I've held off. I guess my question is, do I need a bigger version of my phone? Do you?

Dell Goes Streaking With Rogers

"With this rollout, Canada joins the UK, the United States, Australia and India to become the most recent country where we've officially launched it. What’s a Dell Streak? This unique pocket tablet offers some of the best on-the-go entertainment, navigation and social connectivity in a pocket friendly size."

For those of you who looking for some tablet love but do not want to go with an iPad, there are plenty of options, among which, the Streak seems to be gaining a lot of attention. The good? It offers a lot of tablet-like goodness. The bad? It is an interesting size which might not suit a lot of people. It is also curiously sticking with Android 1.6. The worst? It is only available through Rogers in Canada. I will not object to Rogers as a provider, though like any provider in Canada, I have heard numerous complaints, but it would have been nice to see it available through other providers as well. Still, with the holidays soon approaching, I expect that I will be seeing quite a few of these around town. Of course, one does not really need an excuse to get a new toy, right?
