I don't see a niche for the Streak either - and perhaps nobody else does, hence the less than stellar sales (UK sales quoted as "modest and immaterial" - here). Is it a phone or a tablet? TabletPhone? PhonePad? <shrug>

Actually the Streak is the absolute perfect size for a phone. The maximum screen size that still comfortably fits in my pants' front pocket. And when you browse and read -- the difference to those miniature 3.5 inchers is just amazing. Almost double the screen real estate! No scrolling around or zooming in and out all the time. It is just that Dell stinks at marketing such products. Once people see the screen side by side with other phones the "oh it's too big" comments quickly disappear.
Actually Android syncs quite well with Itunes.
The streak is selling quite well, as you can tell from the lively accessories after market.
