Dell Streak 7 Android Tablet Early Hands-on Demo [video]
- seltzered 16y agoI still can't grasp where the market is to buy a tablet on a data plan contract. The problem seems that these hardware-only vendors are trying to extract profit from only their hardware investment instead of either charging a higher price for quality hardware or investing in and charging for a quality app store / user experience. It would be nice if google set an "experience" tier, where if hardware vendors followed a high standard of hardware quality / display specs they could share some of google's advertising/android market profits.

- ergo98 16y agoDell has been seriously underwhelming. They put zero effort into software, and their hardware has been...mediocre. I'm not quite sure what they're going for, but they're failing absolutely miserably. Dell literally is bringing the whole Android platform down a notch. You heard about some great new Android device, and then Dell comes along and takes a piss in the water with some junk. Dell needs to clean some house. They are too big of a company to be failing like this.
- frou_dh 16y agoThe poor viewing angles where the screen looks almost like a negative image are the worst. Cheap junk keeps this problem alive.
- woogley 16y agoThe low resolution is a killer for me. I think I'll hold out for http://www.thetoshibatablet.com/ http://www.thetoshibatablet.com/
- angusgr 16y agoI hope the day eventually comes when "The X is a killer for me. I think I'll hold out for Y" is not the prevailing pattern of existing vs. future Android devices.
