Guys.. I'm seriously debating selling my streak 7. They are sending me a brand new one since mine got messed up. not a refirb but a brand new retail package so I'm thinking instead of using it putting it up on craigs list for sale and thinking about getting the xoom or just waiting untill the new samsung galaxy 8.9 comes out...
A lot of disappointed guys here! Patience, is a virtue! Ja

Well I headed another direction. I am more and more in love with this device. Especially after seeing a lot of new devices in the market , their specs, their price, their reviews. I think this device is fine and getting better.
Stick around. =)

But I will buy one wifi-only device to pair with this.
For example: Ipad2 wifi only is 499, their wifi+3G is 629 (130 USD higher).
DS7 is 200USD.
So if you buy a ipad 2 wifi + DS 7 , you are paying 70 USD more comparing buying an ipad 2 wifi+3G directly.
But,
what you got is HSPA network
A full functional device + powerful android exposure
better camera (comparing only applicable to ipad 2 only)
"portable" 4G access point.
7inch for your mobile needs etc etc

sent from my Tbolt.
im putting my brand new streak on craigslist due to the fact that this dell streak 7 thread is filled so many noobs that dont know how xda is run then get mad and run to mods crying foul when i put then in there place , every time a new device comes out we get a whole new crowd of new people that dont like to listen and just post wanting what they want so if this post gets me banned i am sorry but it will be a cold day in xda hell before i get talked down to by someone who just learned what adb is so to those or that one person who did go and cry hey even the mod said it wasnt worth contacting him but for me to relax ...lol i dont know how to relax...."as i hit this blunt" damn l.a weed
I was really close to selling mine and getting the viewsonic gtablet, but then I realized that the gtablet doesn't have Gps and that's the only reason I got the ds7 was because of built-in GPS and would work well in the car.

Glad to see you took Samsung out of the future decision loop. I think 7 in. tablets are perfect... how about HTC tablet? You already have a Tegra II.

I bought my DS7 like every other XDA regular knowing full and well what "Downsides" it has, we all however felt the potential for what it CAN do once the community puts out the custom work on it. I mean we have the 4G model that works with ATT 3G (Which THAT alone is win if this Merger happens... no other tablet has this yet, so least WE dont need to replace), Tegra 2 is the future atm for the devices. So we are set for PS Suite, Netflix and other quality 3d games Android shouldve had awhile ago to compete against iOS games.
It runs smooth, handles well, has a strong promise in the future, plus Dell isnt that bad. They didnt hardlock us out of rooting. =p *Pats Dell's Head*
While things are slow. Least now that we have the ability to flash, things can only go up. =) With Honeycomb coming, we will really be set! Also T-Mobile moving to 21Mbit (Which atm is in Vegas and NY) we will have a good speed too worthy of a Tablet.
Xoom maybe nice, no lie, but I dont need that. =)
Have you guys seen this? http://www.oeebay.com/goods.php?id=801 Im not sure if this is scam.
I sent the seller an email with questions and this is what they said:
Hello:
Yes,the product is in promotion at the moment,it is 296usd,the shipping cost is 30usd,it is 326usd in all.
all of our products is brand new and original with international warranties.it has clean ESN and 3G/Wifi.
please tell me the shipping address so as to tell you the shipping time.
Waiting for your news!
Best regards!
I received a replacement unit today, but there was no return label. Anyone else in this situation? Does Dell not want the old unit? I'd be happy to keep it
its crazy its taking so long i called dell to tell them i am having over heating issues and they sent me a new one out again and it will be here tomorrow........... i call yesterday
still waiting on my replacement from the weekend. Getting weird menu and keyboard popups, and rebooting now. Think its overheating.
No replacement but new ill will get today. I ordered it last Tuesday.

got my replacement yesterday, no return slips, call dell request a return authorization will email pack slip for returns
Got mine yesterday. No return label but they called and lefr message to return broken one.
I have my streak plugged into a dock and it has frozen once so far. Had to hard reset it and it was pretty warm. Not having a good feeling about it.
For those that got your replacement, question is. did it come with 2.2.2 (with the update) or 2.2.1?
for those of you that got a replacement... was it new in the box with all of the accessories or does it appear to be a refurb...
Mine was brand new. Came in a factory sealed box.

One thing about the overheating. I have only had that issue when the device is charging and the screen is left on. As long as I keep the screen off when charging, I dont have the overheating issue.

Actually hold off.. The Asus eee Transformer looks very promising. It's the same specs as the xoom except it has an ips screen and the sd card is working (currently not on xoom) plus it's got that extra keyboard dock to turn it into a laptop kinda thing complete with usb ports and sd card reader. It's reported that the 16gb will be 399 and the 32 gb be 499 (without the dock) but I estimate the 16gb will be 449(comparable to the acrer hc tab that just went up for pre order) and 549 for the 32gb version.. that's my guesstimate lol
I'm actually selling my xoom to get the asus. Plus the thing isnt even out yet and they already released the source code and are already talking of an OTA update a few weeks after release... which is a very promising sign. They said it has the nicest android tablet screens seen so far that is on par with the ipad 2 screen
And it's pretty easy to wifi tether. I use my glacier to tether to both my xoom and streak 7 and sometimes my netbook or laptop
I listed my xoom for $550 but would accept $525 so if you know anyone that wants one let me know
This Really Bugs me!!! Can't find ANY Dell Streak 5 Accessories locally!!!
I've tried to find a leather case, faceplate of any kind, Touch-Screen Stylus at:
4 Best Buys
4 Malls
10 AT&T dealers/Stores
in the Seattle / Tacoma area and not one of them have anything for the Dell Streak 5! Not one!
None of the stores had a good explanation... just a lot of excuses.
The guy who sold me the Streak basically lied to me saying, "sure they will have some accessories within a week." He also said that Foyo 2.2 was coming any day. That was a month ago. He just wanted to make a sale.
What's up with all that???
Now I'm forced to buy online...
never go to worst buy

Hate to tell u that accessories are difficult to find in stores.
I basically got most of mine online. Even then the best companies dont have it.
Froyo is out for most of the dell versions.
If u have not flashed one from the forum yet

I did get get Froyo 2.2 installed last week. Really improved the phone.
What I meant about this in my first post was the Dealer lied about Dell having it available as an update within a week. He knew that wasn't true. Just like saying they would have accessories within a week too. Just trying to make a sale.
As for no one locally carrying accessories, that's really too bad as the Streak is a fabulous phone. I gave up a iPhone3, Captivate for this and really like it. However, look at all the local stuff you can get for the iPhone in all the stores! One of the stores I went to said it was Dell fault as they restricted the sales of accessories so that you were forced to order from them. If so, that is really STUPID and greedy!!!
Dell did make some mistakes with phones.
One being the PDMI port. Its actually such a great thing , however its still very new.
Many developers have not incorporated it into their products.
Also dell has marketed this phone terribly. Even ATT does not know they have this under them.
USB cable £9.99
Gel case £9.99
Wallet £14.99
All official Dell products in store.

They're also selling the Dell Streak at half price - £199 unlocked.
Bought one yesterday and am very pleased!
me too
I got one in store too. Bargain at that price
Hopefully they'll reduce the prices online to match - I can't get to a store right now
£199? is that with no contract? thats a fooking bargain!! whats the os just the stock dell rom you get if you buy from the website?
Its off contract and updates easily to 2.2.2!
Just rooted mine and looking for a good ROM to start experimenting...
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk
Yes, generic Dell set up with out a contract, just put my existing SIM card in and it has now updated to the latest Android version.
The online price was the same when I looked at Tesco Direct although they had no stock. I'm guessing that they've reduced then to clear and they won't be back in stock. I had to search locally for a store that still had 1 in stock.
Sent from my Dell Streak using XDA App
I think that Tesco are clearing their stock. I hope that they decide to stock the Streak 2 as they seem to be offering the best prices...
At £199.95 sim free I'm sorely tempted to buy one just for spare!
Got my Streak back from Dell this morning. They sent me a brand new one! Has a Dell logo instead of the T-mobile. Popped in my T-mobile sim, and fired it up. Battery was charged full, and so far, it's working great. Version 2.2.2 Seems as if the reception is better? I take back most of the bad stuff I said about Dell. For now. Also, while my Streak was off for repair, I bought a Toshiba Thrive. 10" and with honeycomb. I love it. Turned the Streak wi fi share on, and the Toshiba locked right on. Can't have too many toys ya know.
