You know..., you never know. I bought my wife the Droid Eris this Christmas when it first came out and in a few months the device was End of Life...Huh? It is also more risky when a company introduces a new product to the market, much like Dell's Streak. The phone is a cross between a phone, tablet, and eReader people are either going to take to it or reject it.
Dell has shown an earnest commitment to the streak, they have promised an upgrade to 2.2 by the end of summer; I'm wondering if part of their delay in releasing the product is due to them trying to get 2.2 ready for the US release. There is also rumors of a 7" and 10".
I am a techi and can tell you this, the Dell Streak has a techi appeal. This is one of the few phones out today that will continue to enjoy a long life based on the community support. ... There's already a web site called
Dell Streak Hacks. Many of these mod/hacks are getting easier to apply.
Of course, if your on AT&T, you can upgrade to the iPhone 4 or go for the Samsung Galaxy S Captivate. Personally I think the Samsung Galaxy S line is probably the best phone on the market today. I can only imagine the Super AMOLED with it's dark black contrast will make a very nice reader.
