Dell teases with Android-powered Mini 5 Internet tablet at CES
January 9, 2010 4 Comments
Dell has showcased a new Internet tablet at CES in Las Vegas, and it is to be called the Mini 5. With a 5-inch screen and the open-source Android operating system, it looks like Dell’s got a winner. It’s pretty in pictures, but held in the hands of any normal person, the Dell Mini 5 Internet tablet looks more like a cell phone than any Internet tablet you’re used to seeing. It’s quite thin, and it even sports a built-in SIM card slot, as a matter of fact. This sort of makes it an over-sized smartphone, pitted up against current mobile browsing favorites like the Apple iPhone, Nokia N900 and HTC HD2.
There are also two cameras onboard the Dell Mini 5: a 5MP camera at the back and a front-facing camera presumably for video calls. Dell hasn’t released any info about pricing and most importantly, battery life, but a multi-touch screen and Android make the Dell Mini 5 a sweet device at any price point below $500.

Great post :) I want to have an Android phone :)
Do you have a “totaled” or wiped out Dell computer? Do you want to be a more socially aware and environmentally concerned techie-owner by looking for ways to have your unit recycled?
This is great for business people I guess and not only.I would want something like that because I travel a lot and it is hard for me to keep my self “updated” with different things for my business.
