    However, what was not provided and could not be predicted is what dog would lose it's footing and go tumbling to the far rail and which part of the pack he would take with him.

  18. Re:Just what we need on Hands-On With Dell's Streak Android Device · · Score: 1

    No, because Google doesn't support it. Hence why the first wave of these devices are basically over sized phones, that's the only way Google will let them access the Android Market and the Google Apps.

  19. Re:Just what we need on Hands-On With Dell's Streak Android Device · · Score: 1

    Are they? I have yet to see any Tablets that aren't an oversized phone phone(AKA the Streak) which can access the Android market.

    There is no such thing as an Android Tablet. Google doesn't officially make an OS for tablets yet, they're holding off on ChromeOS for that. These are just hackjobs by manufacturers trying to get in on the iPad hype.
