Dell will launch its 5-inch Android-based Tablet designed to provide people the best “on-the-go” entertainment, social connection, and navigation experience in the UAE next month.

The Dell Streak, featuring built-in Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 3G connectivity, is ideal for experiencing thousands of Android Market widgets, games and applications, a statement said.

It brings easy access for downloading and listening to music, updating social networking status in real-time, and staying connected to friends and family through e-mail, text, IM, and voice calls, it added.

“Customers in the UAE and the Middle East are ahead of the curve in terms of technology uptake. It was important for Dell to bring the Streak to the region to satisfy this demand,” said Amer Husaini, VP and GM for Dell Consumer Small Medium Business, Middle East, Turkey and Africa. “For those that want the newest and the best, look no further.”

On-the-go students, mobile professionals, and active families will find Streak’s web-browsing capabilities as natural as a laptop, a statement said.

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, it added.

The Dell Streak leverages Qualcomm’s Snapdragon solution with integrated 1GHz processor to combine basic functionality, performance, and benefits of a laptop in a pocket friendly size.

“The Dell Streak hits the sweet spot between traditional smartphones and larger-screen tablets,” said Ron Garriques, president, Dell Communication Solutions Group. “Its unique size provides people new ways to enjoy, connect, and navigate their lives.”

The Dell Streak was designed with the future in mind and will support over-the-air updates including platform upgrades, Adobe Flash 10.1 on Android 2.2 later this year, video chat applications and other software innovations. – TradeArabia News Service
