Is this truly a tablet or an over-sized smartphone? This 5-inch touch screen tablet runs on a modded version of the Android OS and is the first of its kind. It may not be taken seriously because there are a few other tablets out, but they aren’t very good compared to this. This tablet comes with a nice 1ghz processor with WIFI and 3G support, but as of now they’re aren’t any cellphone providers supporting the device yet. But that shouldn’t be long because the device is basically a big smart phone, and when I say big, I mean it’s the size of a paper-back book so it still fits into your pocket unlike any other tablet on the market.
Some of the features include a nice 5MP camera on the back, with flash and a front facing webcam so you can have video chats with others. The set release date for the Dell Streak is in August which will be selling for roughly $500 for an unlocked version, or if any cellphone providers decided to sell it you could possibly get it for cheaper. Not too many people have even heard of this device so I doubt people are expecting this to be an “iPad Killer” but it is by far the best of the Android tablets. I plan on another 6 months to go by and we’ll finally see an Android tablet to compete with iPad, and then the fan boy wars will begin. For a more in-depth look, check out the video below to see what you think of the new project.
