US computer giant Dell announced plans on January 7 to launch a new touchscreen tablet computer and a smartphone powered by Google's Android software. Dell unveiled the new phone, the Venue, and the tablet, the Streak 7, at the annual Consumer Electronics Show, which draws tens of thousands of buyers and sellers from around the globe to Las Vegas.
Dell launched a smartphone late last year with Microsoft, using the US software giant's Windows Phone 7 mobile operating system, but it opted for Google's free Android platform for the latest device.
Dell said the new Streak 7 tablet has a seven-inch (17.8-centimeter) screen, slightly larger than the display on the first Streak the company released last year. Dell said the Streak 7 is designed for the faster Internet speeds of US wireless carrier T-Mobile's 4G network.
