Tell me one gadget making company that isn’t attempting to make the ultimate mobile phone. In the overly bubbling cell phone market, mobile makers have been popping up like anything. The recent addition to the band wagon is Dell. After all the hassle that was faced by Dell, it is finally time that you get to see the Dell Streak.

The five inch screen of Dell Streak as we have covered before certainly makes it a much larger mobile than most but has been anticipated by Dell to be attractive enough to lure customers. Who knows that even you might end up switching to the new Dell Streak from your regular cellphone.

A two year contract with AT&T will get you the Dell Streak for $299.99 or else be ready to shell off $549.99 if you want to buy the phone independently. Do your math before you spend your important dollars. Also, if you had signed up for the pre-sale order of Dell Streak then you can easily place your order by 12th of August instead of waiting till 13th August. Speculations indicate that it should be carrying Android 1.6.

On-the-go students, mobile professionals, and active families will find Streak’s web-browsing capabilities as natural as a laptop. The 5-inch screen is large enough to present Web pages in their natural form, create a comfortable viewing experience, and make turn-by-turn navigation simple. The Dell Streak is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon solution with integrated 1GHz processor to combine basic functionality and benefits of a laptop in a pocket friendly size.

Time will tell how easily Dell would be able to attract the attention of the younger lot with its sleek looking design.
