'Telefonica O2 to launch Dell Streak next month'May 17, 2010 (DMEUROPE via COMTEX) -- Dell will release its Streak handheld computer in Europe next month and in the US during the summer, IDG News reports, citing comments from CEO Michael Dell at the Citrix Systems' Synergy conference in San Francisco. The Streak is an Android-based device that Dell showed at the Consumer Electronics Show in January. The Streak has a 5-inch touch screen, front and back cameras and Wi-Fi and cellular connectivity. The company hopes to attract consumers who want a screen bigger than most smartphones but smaller than a netbook. The device will launch in Europe next month with mobile operator Telefonica O2, and in the US "next summer" with AT&T, the CEO said, although it seems likely he meant summer this year. A Dell spokesman couldn't confirm either way. The operator partnerships had been disclosed but not the timing for release.
