If you love your gadgets white then you might want to give this one a look. Best Buy USA is now offering a white-backed Dell Streak MID and it's only available in stores. Yes, this is actually available right now but you should call your store first because they might not have them yet. I hope it's worth the hunt.

Dell released it yesterday and now it's Rogers' turn. The Canadian carrier has just released the Dell Streak and you can get it right now for $149.99 on a 3-year contract and $549.99 contract-free. This MID packs a 5-inch WVGA display, a 5MP AF camera with a dual-LED flash, a front-facing camera, WiFi / Bluetooth support, GPS, a 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, a microSD card slot, and Android 1.6 with an upgrade to version 2.1 in the near future. It's not available online yet but you could get up and go look for it in stores.

Update: Into Mobile has just pointed out that it's now available online, so check it out here.

Rogers should be offering it soon but if you're interested then you can now get the Android-based Streak MID on Dell's own website unsubsidized. Check it out on Dell where you can now get one for $549.99 contract-free. Rogers should launch this one soon so you should see it in their stores and on their website for $149.99 on a 3-year contract.

Rogers may be launching the Samsung Captivate next week but the Android party isn't over. According to the image you see above, the carrier will also be launching the Dell Streak MID in early November. This MID is already available on AT&T in the US so it's good to see that Canada will be getting it as well. Unfortunately, it's unknown what version of Android it'll have but it could be version 1.6, which would kind of suck

Yes, the image also confirms that Rogers will be getting the Vivaz Pro from Sony Ericsson.

Update: According to a newer Mobile Syrup post, the Dell Streak's training guide has just been leaked. The training guide confirms that it'll launch with Android 1.6 but there'll be an OTA update to version 2.2 later this year, which is a bit before the Captivate gets their Froyo update which is scheduled for early 2011. Of course, you can always root either device and put Froyo on it yourself. Check out the link above for a few more photos.

It looks like Best Buy in the USA will be getting a couple of new devices on October 24th and they're all Android powered - besides the WP7 based HTC Surround in the picture above. From left to right you have the white Samsung Fascinate that's headed to Verizon, the AT&T Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 in white, and the AT&T Dell Streak. You should know the spec sheets of all of these devices by now since they've been around for a while. Anyways, you can pre-order all of these devices right now if you're interested.

It may be Friday the 13th but for some of you this could be a good day. Dell has released their Streak MID and it's now available on AT&T. The Android-based MID is now available for $299.99 on a 2-year contract and $549.99 contract-free - although it's still SIM-locked to the carrier. You can also get a couple of accessories for the device, there's the $39.99 Car Dock and the $69.99 Home AV Dock with HDMI output. The Streak packs a 5-inch touchscreen display, a 5MP camera, a front-facing camera, a 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, and Android 1.6. There'll be an update to a newer version of Android (2.x) but who knows when that will be released. Check it out on Dell's site here.

Update: According to Crunch Gear, the Dell Streak's Android 2.1 update has just leaked out. A lot of people are saying that the update is really smooth so if you want to check it out it's on the modaco forums.

Dell and AT&T have finally announced exactly when the Dell Streak will be available. The rumour turned out to be true regarding the pricing. On August 13th, the Dell Streak Android-based MID will be released and it'll be $300 on a 2-year contract and $549.99 contract-free. If you ordered yours during the pre-sale though, you'll be getting yours on August 12th so you'll be one-day early!

Dell has finally announced when they'll be launching their Android-based Streak MID and even their Aero smartphone. If you ordered the Streak MID in the last seven days then you'll be the first to get it. The Streak will be available for $299.99 on a 2-year AT&T contract and will also be available for $549.99 contract-free. Dell has also outlined some details on their Aero smartphone.

Ahh well, the rumoured July 19th release date for the Dell Streak on AT&T clearly didn't happen, but it looks like Dell themselves has just put up their pre-sale site. You'll be able to pre-order one soon, but you can put all your information into their website if you really want to be up to date on any news about this Android-based MID. Crunch Gear points out that if you sign up your shipping will be upgraded to the 2nd Business Day and you'll also be able to buy a Plantronics Bluetooth headset for just $0.99 more if you order your Streak with it.

Update: According to Phone Arena, The Dell Streak will be available in late July if you believe Dell's official website.

There's a rumour going around that AT&T is extremely close to launching the Dell Streak / Mini 5 MID. This MID, of course, is going to be running Android along with a 5-inch touchscreen display. It's kind of big to use as a phone but it'll do for some people who don't talk on their phone for that long anyway - especially with AT&T's network. Apparently, the MID will be hitting the carrier in less than a week, July 19th. Of course, if you're looking for a real phone the Samsung Galaxy S or the Captivate will be hitting the carrier soon as well.

In case you're interested in the Dell Streak / Mini 5 MID then you should note that it's now available on their own [UK] website unlocked (here). This will cost you £449.99 and that'll be enough for you to put it on any carrier you want. The Streak packs a 5-inch touchscreen display, a 1GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon CPU, a 5MP AF camera, WiFi / Bluetooth support, a microSD card slot, and Android 1.6.

As expected, O2 in the UK has just released the Dell Streak / Mini 5 MID. You can get this device for free on an 18-month contract for £40 ($58 USD) monthly or for free on a 2-year contract where you'll have to pay £35 ($51 USD). In case you need a bit of a refresher, this MID packs a 5-inch touchscreen Gorilla Glass display with a n 800 x 480 resolution, a 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, and Android 1.6 with an update to 2.1 later this year. Check it out on their website here.

Here's some good news for you Dell Streak / Mini 5 MID fans out there. This device will reportedly be available sometime in July and will be unlocked in the US for $500. Of course, folks in the UK could get their hands on this MID this Friday, July 4th so you'll have to wait a little bit longer than them.

[Engadget]

Carphone Warehouse in the UK weren't kidding when they told us that they would be launching the Dell Mini 5 / Streak MID in early June. On June 4th, they'll be releasing this tablet / MID / huge smartphone for £429 ($624 USD) contract-free. Of course, the device will also be available for free on contract but you'll have to pay £25 ($36 USD) monthly. It's only three days away, so I'm sure you can wait for it.

Carphone Warehouse has just announced that they'll be launching the Dell Streak aka the Mini 5 MID. This Android 1.6 based tablet sports a 5-inch WVGA touchscreen display and should get an OTA update in the future - hopefully to Android 2.1 or even 2.2 "Froyo". Inside you'll find a 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, a microSD card slot, a 16GB card in the box, and on the outside you'll find a front-facing VGA camera along with a 5MP AF camera on the back with a dual-LED flash. The launch will apparently be later this week.

Update: According to Engadget, it's just been confirmed that O2 UK will be launching the Dell Mini 5 in early June. And, of course, it'll also be hitting the US later this Summer - whenever that is.

Update: Slash Gear has mentioned that it'll be hitting O2 UK on June 4th.

It looks like O2 Telefonica is ready to get their MID on really soon. Apparently, they'll be launching the Dell Streak / Mini 5 sometime next month (June). AT&T should also be getting this MID as well, but it'll be later on in the Summer time. Of course, we'll have to play the waiting game now.

[Engadget]

Dell looks like they have let another leak slip. It looks like they're gearing up a netbook tablet, codenamed the "Sparta", and it's said to be sporting an 11-inch display with a 1,024 x 768 resolution, an ARM CPU, optional 3G / WiFi / Bluetooth support, and a "unique" swivel. The other device is the "Athens" which will have a 0.9kg body and it'll also sport an 11-inch display along with an ARM CPU and optional 3G / WiFi / Bluetooth support. Either of these will be capable of running on Android / Moblin (possibly MeeGo, since it's an old slide). They both should be launching this Fall, but expect some delays.

Dell also appears to be working on the Looking Glass Pro (Android-based) tablet as well, but it'll be very similar to the non-Pro model. The only upgrade the Pro model will have is an HD display and an integrated digital TV tuner. This could be set for a Q1 2011 release date.

Last, but not least, it's the Dell Streak aka the Mini 5 MID and it's said to be coming in various variants. There'll be one for US (which we already know), one for Europe (Vodafone), and one for China (China Telecom, China Unicom, and China Mobile) as well. These are all expected to launch later this year.

Most of these dates appear to be off so expect a couple of months delay.

[Engadget]

The Dell Mini 5 is not even available yet and Dell is chirping that it'll be running Android 2.1 by September. That's really all they mentioned and we're hoping that Dell releases this soon or else we might as well wait for the Dell Looking Glass tablet which blows this out of the water. It's expected to be released in the Summertime.

[Engdaget]

The Dell Mini 5 is no stranger to the FCC headquarters and it has just taken another trip over there (check out the filing here). This time it's sporting 3G bands for T-Mobile USA (WIND Mobile in Canada) so maybe it'll hit more than one carrier in the US. Like Motorola, Dell is riding the Android wave to try to get into the game.
