Dell Aero Overview
The Dell Aero will prove to be AT&T's second Android powered handset and while it isn't technically Dell's first Android phone, it is nearly identical to the Dell Mini 3i which WAS the manufacturer's first Android Phone (previously launched in China). Now Dell is bringing their Android wares to America, and they've significantly customized the UI on what AT&T is calling "the lightest Android Phone" upon launch:
With a 3.5-inch screen, 5MP camera, Flash Lite and simplistically enjoyable design, the Dell Aero stands to be an attractive option for AT&T customers.

Dell Aero Reviews
Dell Aero (AT&T) Unintuitive, slow, and limited in functionality, the Dell Aero is a huge disappointment and simply can't compete with the competition.
Review: Dell Aero The Dell Aero is unlike any other Android phone I’ve used. It doesn’t feel like Android with a skin on top. It feels more like a feature phone with Android beneath. If you’re looking for a phone that is slim and light and packed with features, read on for my in-depth impressions of Dell’s entry into the world of smartphones.

Dell Aero Gets Confirmation Treatment Probably the entity to make the smallest splash of the huge Dell leaks we were treated to yesterday, the Dell Aero will still get its chance to wow and impress you.

Dell’s New Streak Tablets Leaked, Aero and Mini 5 Get Tentative Dates Look what just came rolling through the pipeline: Dell could be bringing us even more tablets in 7-inch and 10-inch flavors!

Dell Aero Disappoints, Seeks Redemption Epic tech fiend Joshua Topolsky from Engadget got his mittens on the Dell Aero and the outcome wasn’t good. He immediately noticed the software keyboard was one of the worst ever and his analysis continued down that slippery path. AT&T bloatware, lack of Google applications, weird home/back button, medium speed UI… he simply wasn’t digging [...]
