The Dell Streak — early name the Dell Mini 5 — has had its release with a ton of press coverage. One reason being that it was Dell’s first go at an Android tablet. Two, for the sake of it, it is an actually good looking Android tablet. A 5-inch WVGA screen with Gorilla Glass, 1GHz Snapdragon processor, 5 megapixel camera on the back with a VGA front-facing, Wi-Fi/3G HSPA+/Bluetooth combo, a user-replaceable battery, along with a 16GB microSD card in our review unit which we tortured with tests for over the course of a week.

So the Dell Streak has gone to meet its demise. Its transformation to the dark side of technology. To a site called iFixit, where they do anything but “fix” things on a daily basis.
In a new press release by PR manager of the Dell Streak, the 5″ Gorilla glass display, 5 megapixel camera dual LED flash, VGA front-facing, 3G/Bluetooth/Wi-FI, Android 1.6 tablet due on AT&T August 13th will be sold for $300 (on AT&T contract) and $550 without.

The Dell Inspiron R series are probably the most excited Dell systems that have ever gotten me excited since the Studio XPS and the Alienware M11x. Starting off at your options, the Dell Inspiron R series is very back-to-school (and even more than that). All 3 units – the 14R, 15R and 17R – come in much better build materials than used in the original Inspiron line (which in this case is metal), have Core i CPUs, and supports Intel’s Wireless Display tech, which allows you to basically extend your screen to a TV or monitor without any cables. and the starter model starts at $449. Nice.
