Alienware Planning Android iPhone Killer?

meteorit found a story about rumors of an Alienware phone based on Google's Android phone OS. As Dell has a history of bombing with handhelds, it would be interesting to try the Alienware brand instead. And I'm not exactly sure where they get off claiming that their drawings are the first pictures of the thing. Cheesy renderings designed explicitly for your website are not quite pictures of a product... they are artists impressions.

    I'm a geek and a vain one at that. I would actually buy one of these. (Provided they work OK and the material used isn't too shabby and bla bla bla.)

    My vanity makes me wear suits and occasionally I spout heaps of crap. So the normal ones think one of them.

    But I'm not. I can actually code and I like fscking with people's brain.

    Screw the iPhone. Show -but bot flaunt- this thing. Wait until someone puts in the remark and think of a way to fsck the brain -you can do the thinking before.

    Norm: That's an interesting phone.
    Geek: Yeah, you could learn one or two things from it.

    Norm: Kool gadget.
    Geek: 20 degrees Celcius is indeed lower than 37

    Etc, etc...
