Works for me wtf.

Only android 1.6? Odd product...

I actually think it looks sweet - I'm a big guy with big hands. Currently use a touch pro 2 and think it's too small by far. I'd love a 5" device like this that could replace my GPS, phone and ipod (technically my TP2 could, but the screen's too small for GPS and the music features suck on it)

But it's only on ATT - can't give up my Sprint SERO!

Never could nail down the monthly AT&T costs, which I assume ain't cheap. Also the Streak is covered for 1 yr on P&L and the AT&T contract requires 2 years of payment. Someone over at Apple should be raising issues about the Dell lock-in with only AT&T on this device.

Dell's Streak tablet launch off to rough start

I'm with dboy on this.

Link was broken when I tried but anyway, I like the look of dell streak. Dell has a potential hit on their hands if they can manage to not screw up the marketing of this product.

You're talking about Dell here. Of course they'll screw up the marketing. And, they'll provide substandard post-sale support just like they did when they got into printers (nonexistent driver updates) and electronics (like MP3 players that they abandon with no software updates for newer operating systems, turning them into paperweights). They've burned me enough times over the years that I'm very leery of them and any new product they sell that isn't a computer.

I really hope it does work out, but I won't even consider buying one until I see exactly how well they will support it.

Looks like Anand liked it.
