This may or may not be interesting to you, but according to the Wall Street Journal, Dell is working on an MID running on Google's Android OS. According to the source, it's a bit larger than the iPod Touch and could be around for this year's holiday season. The source also points out that this MID from Dell will run on an ARM processor, which could be a bad thing - when competing with the likes of a possible updated iPod Touch later this year and, of course, the Zune HD. Could Dell be replacing their supposed smartphone with this MID? Maybe Dell couldn't take the heat of other carriers, suggesting it was "indifferent". I'm not sure, but you can click on the link below for more information regarding this so-called MID from Dell.
