Dell Streak

The US likes to stay on top of technology when it comes to the defense of its people. Take for instance a railgun the Navy has been testing, which recently fired off its 1,000th shot, a milestone in proving the weapon feasible for combat situations. But things are a bit different when it comes to [...]

Looks like Dell may have pulled their 5-inch, tablet/phone hybrid Dell Streak from store shelves and removed the device from their online store as well. You would immediately assume this means the device has been discontinued but not so fast, Turbo. Apparently, after Engadget attempted to phone-in and order the device through Dell’s customer service, [...]

Dell’s hoping folks in Japan will really get excited for the Dell Streak, it seems: the PC – and now phone/tablet – manufacturer has teamed up with a dance band called World Order to showcase their product in perhaps the most interesting and entertaining way ever. Fake slow motion, still technique dancing, and more rear [...]

Dell has finally announced the beginning of the Froyo rollout for their Dell Streak (5 inch) on both Rogers and AT&T. The update has been available in leak form for quite some time now. We once believed it may have been shipping on new devices, but that never ended up being the case. It’s finally [...]

While Dell is busy improving their Streak lineup with the release of the Streak 7, the good old boys at MoDaCo have been doing a bit of polishing themselves. That is, they have been polishing up a Honeycomb SDK port for the original Dell Streak. Don’t worry. It’s still far from useful, but the team [...]

Yet another swing and a miss. It’s been a while since we’ve heard about Dell Streak’s Froyo update on AT&T. The last time we visited this scenario, we were looking at emails from within the company stating it had been delayed. Dell later confirmed those emails to be true. Now, we’re faced with the same: [...]

Aside from the Dell Streak’s big size for a phone, the other factor that might keep some away is its big price. But once again, the holidays come to the rescue with an offer that is just too good to refuse. $99.99 dollars and a two year contract with AT&T are all that keeps you [...]

Folks on O2 in the UK with the Dell Streak will be glad to know that your upgrade to Android 2.2 should be arriving sometime this week. Lucky, you, considering you didn’t have to suffer until 2011. You also have been on Android 2.1 for quite some time. (I feel for you, AT&T users.) There’s [...]

Dell must have seen those emails that were leaked yesterday regarding the AT&T Sim-Locked version of the Streak where we learned that the Froyo update for the device has been delayed until January. There’s no questioning the validity of that leak, now, as Dell – with great timing – has come out and updated us [...]

Oh noes! Dell seems to have put a mean halt on the Froyo upgrade for AT&T’s Streak users, for whatever reason. In an email sent to StreakSmart which looks to have been from Dell to AT&T, Dell’s stating the unlocked devices on AT&T can grab the update OTA by going to the settings menu. Unfortunately, [...]

A custom recovery option based off of Koush’s Clockwork Recovery is now available for the Dell Streak courtesy of XDA-Forums member mistadman. The tool keeps the look and feel simple and stock and is still a work in progress, but for now it supports the Streak’s landscape mode, capacitive buttons, and the signature verification setting [...]

Dell’s had the upgrade to Android 2.2 ready for a few weeks now as their unlocked devices have already gotten the upgrade OTA, but we were still waiting on AT&T for those who opted for it subsidized here in the states. If you haven’t already rooted your phone applied the upgrade yourself, be on the [...]

A few weeks back we reported both that the Dell Streak would soon be available in a new white color scheme, but also that the tablet/phone would go on sale unlocked carrying Froyo on-board in the US. Dell has formally announced both of these items with the addition of pricing details and the reveal of [...]

For whatever reason, people love having their favorite tech gear in alternate white color schemes, and Best Buy loves being the one to offer them exclusively. Such is the case with the Dell Streak, seen here with a new white back cover. The freshly colored 5-inch tablet/phone will only be available in brick and mortar [...]

If you held off on the Dell Streak when it came to the US via AT&T, you made a good call. That is, if you don’t mind plopping down the full price for one of the tablet/phones unlocked. While users who purchased the Streak through AT&T will have to wait a bit longer to get [...]

We learned Dell would most likely be bringing out the upgrade to Android 2.2 for their five inch tablet sometime this month, but the only word we’d gotten was via a leak that offered nothing more for details. Today, Dell’s come out to acknowledge the update and has confirmed that it will be rolling out [...]

A Facebook post by Dell Streak UK is announcing that FroYo is heading to the UK “before the end of November”. While most users can expect to receive 2.2 by standard OTA, Engadget is reporting that Dell had a website up for a little while that may have allowed select Streak owners to download and [...]

Yesterday, we learned Del started selling the Dell Streak exclusively for Rogers customers –  just as it had been rumored – but we didn’t see Rogers offering the 5-inch device subsidized as we’d also heard. Today, they’ve gone ahead and announced their plans to offer it for $149.99 on three year voice and data plans. [...]

Rogers’ Q4 roadmap showed they’d be getting the Dell Streak alongside the unearthing of some early pricing figures, but now Dell’s offering the device just as promised. The SIM-Free device will only be usable on Rogers’ network, as Dell’s website clearly states. We’re not sure why they chose to go this route, but business is [...]

BGR just got a hold of a ton of information on upcoming releases for Rogers Canada, and while plenty of good mobile devices are headed for the carrier, the Android highlights include the Samsung Galaxy Tab and Dell Streak. The Galaxy Tab shouldn’t come as much of a surprise considering Samsung’s strategy of getting their [...]
