What makes you think that
Have you heard something

The Dell streaks are made by Qisda which used to be Benq
They make several phones for other companies, I think acer is one of them..
Qisda are/were doing the initial software development as well, before Dell in house team do the user Interface mods.
the software development is all supposed to be going in house in future, which should speed up development and hopefully bring some improvements.

We all wish it was made by HTC

If it were made by HTC, Froyo would have been on the device a long time ago.

No just speculation. The replacement of the HTC Athena 7501/7510 series was almost an exact match spec wise for the Streak:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=835781
HTC canceled(?) their Thoth replacement, but the Streak shows up using the same form factor of a large screen smartphone. Dell can call it what they want but it isn't a tablet to me.

No T-Mobile Pulse Forum?

I thought you would have a forum for this, being very cheap in the UK and the first android phone on PAYG. Only £179 on T-Mobile, Someone should be doing some work on this, Its a very cheap android phone!
Thanks.
And the kernel has been released on the T-Mobile website....
well the xda forums are for HTC manufactured handsets only.
However on the Modaco forums they are dev'ing for the pulse, kernel source only came out yesterday.
Paul (top dog at Modaco) has posted a cooked rom with all the basics in, ie apps2sd. Cant thank him enough for the work he is doing.
Hoping that we will see more deveolpment on the device once hit hits the shores of the US.
You can find all the details here!

i think pulse is made by HTC, HUAWEI only provide the GUI for this phone, this device's hardware is same as magic, just change a case and look & feel.
so if this site can give a subform for Pulse it will be great.

As I can see, Pulse (Huawei U8220 Android) for the price is way good. And has a good rated reviews everywhere. I'm thinking of getting one.
will this work on tmobile US as in 3g and phn if unlocked. I too would like to buy one of these. Where do you buy them from the US

Exactly! The same thing they did on the P900 to the P910. And, than there was the X1 to the X2.
I told you in April, May, June, and July. I have owned four SE flag ship devices and this is exactly what SE do. What's their motto again? Oh yeah, Make Believe!
SE make you believe that you are getting the latest device and it turns out to be miles behind the devices that come out one week later!

As far as I can tell from the pic is that the HD is about video. Hence the "HD capture 720p". Read the small letters below the HD. They are just promoting the capability to capture HD videos in 720p.

Wow, something different in Singapore. We still have only X10 here so the marketing strategy will be different in different countries.

Looking at the ad and translating it to English and then reading it in context it's obvious it is a marketing scheme. I don't understand why people are getting mad that a company wants to trick another group of people in to buying their product.
Edit: people getting mad would be fm1776 but I guess he/she was mad at SE before the telephone was invented

I don't. I have already a 12mp DSLR which isn't compromised by the lack of flash, camera software and OEM support. I wouldn't put my trust in SE with anything now that I know how awful the company is. SE is horrible.

official 2.2 in 2 week

Dell will push Google's Android 2.2 OS to its Streak handheld devices in a matter of "weeks," a company executive said this week.
It says 'a matter of weeks' not 2 weeks, i was expecting to be out well before christmas anyway to help sales figuers.
I like to fart in shoeboxes
Point taken, i stand corrected
ipguy said:
Explain to me what the differance is please ?
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
There's a world of difference between 'a matter of weeks' and '2 weeks' and one is set defined with the number 2 the other could mean any number of weeks.
I don't know where in the world you are but there's a big thing in the UK at the moment with broadband companies quoting 'up to' in their specification.
eg: 'up to 8mb a second' the fact is it's perfectly legal as it states 'up to' and carries no defined number, like 'a matter of' for example.
Like the word 'several' like i had sex several times last week now that could mean three or twenty three couldn't it
Now the word 'couple' is completely different altogether, if you say 'i had sex a couple of times last week' then of course that means twice, because of the global association of the word 'couple' with the number two.
Now if i said 'i had sex with a couple last week' that throws up all soughts of figures and other stuff which we shall not go into here.
So if the quote was '2.2 released in a couple of weeks' rather than '2.2 released in a matter if weeks' now you see the difference.
Great expaination CHECKBOX111
As a general rule a.matter of weeks is up to 4.
More than that and you are in month territory. Thats providing the spokes person at dell has a reasonable grip of grammar

That's at&ts decision. Not dells. Froyo is out for the streak. Most phones that are unlocked get their releases fast as they don't pass through carriers. They are direct from the manufacturer.
-Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
just for a comparison, the Italian version of my actual device, HTC touch HD, never got any ROM update because it was branded (not even locked) by an Italian carrier.
anyway. i don't really think there will be a gingerbread update. at least not a dell official one. all the other competitors have made official statements, tweets, and whatnot about updates to 2.3, silence from dell. skeptical... i just hope they won't be inspired by motorola on this one
i see a chance of dell dropping support for the streak on their mobile line. i dont think its done that well and i think its kinda their fault. however, if it stays on the lineup for another couple months, it may just get gingerbread. id be expecting it more from djsteve than dell though. just as a side note: no android phone on att officially has froyo yet. ponder that.

They are still selling it as new on carriers world round. So.... we'll see? But I'm sure we'll get it ported over one way or another! I haven't had much experience with Android, so I have no idea on how to do any of that kind of stuff ... So I'll wait and see if Dell mentions anything!
I think we will get Gingerbread.. Personally, I've seen more and more good news about the Streak and I would hope that because of this Dell would offer to support the Streak's upgrade path.
We all know Gingerbread is said to be more tablet friendly and Dell has marketed our device as a tablet first (phone 2nd). If it's not official from Dell I'm sure someone from XDA will keep the dream alive
Streaking with the XDA app!
ETA december 31, 2613! lol
Hopefully before streak EOL announcement...

For sure it will get it. Spoke to my dell guy inside and he says demand is up with a 15 day lead time...
What you also have to realize is the dell 7 streak will be out soon and businesses like mine will snatch them up... when people learn about the streak 5 they will buy.
I knew little to nothing about it and I am a tech person.. until my dell guy handed me one to play with...

nothing better than a 5" screen to see it on lol. I agree though i think it will get gingerbread, for the reason that the Dell 7 will more than likely be announced at CES people will jump to get a cheaper model price wise the streak and see if its good so that they can get the 7 for say business. Im sure it will get gingerbread as soon as it starts rolling out at least the unlocked version will lol. Not many have gingerbread if im not mistaken ive only seen the Nexus with a legit gingerbread .
I think theres no gingerbread update for streak
the main new fiture in ginger bread is nfc suported, but dell doesnt have nfc chip on it,,
maybe gingerbread available in the next streak (opus one)

NFC support could be most hyped hardware thingie on gingerbread but mass market adoption will take time and there are many alternative ways to support such functionality even without a built in IC. Whether streak will get an official update or not depends on dell moving its butt to make it happen but I also use nexus one and it will be gingerized without an NFC IC and hopefully start rolling very very very soon...
More than 2 finger multitouch, gyro capabilities and apps utilizing/supporting such features will be more of my concern rather than specific support for NFC on existing hardware as gingerization rolls out...

I feel it will get gingerbread. Reason is that Google hasnt said that you need to have anything to use gingerbread unlike with Honeycomb its just up to dell to get it done.

Actually, Taiwan is still run by the original Republic of China government that the communists attacked and kicked out when they took over China.
China thinks they own it, but have no control over it at all, while the Taiwan government just laughs in their face.
I'm impressed that some of you westerners here actually know the difference between China and Taiwan.
Think of it this way, it's similar to some of us Asians thinking that Americans and British are the same white people.
Yes the world is that big and there's actually something over the other side of the globe.
Well, seems like we're going off on a tangent here. Still, WM6.5? Really? Might as well talk other crap here.
