Dell Working On Android Phone?

on 06/15/2009, filed in Home > CellPhones

Word on the street has it that Dell is currently developing a new handset that will run on the Android operating system. Well, that’s as much detail as we can ascertain from this customary blur image of a seemingly touchscreen handset complete with the Dell logo at the bottom. All of it ties in pretty nicely with rumors of an upcoming Dell smartphone, but must all future touchscreen handsets come in such a boring form factor?

Android: Android is the mobile operating system from Google. The software was originally built by a company called Android Inc, that was purchased by Google in 2005. From its modest debuts, Android has become a powerhouse that powers not only smartphones and tablet, but a host of other less high-profile devices and gadgets. Although Android is not a community-driven project, Google does release the source code as open-source under the Apache license. You can follow Ubergizmo on Android with Google Currents.

Dell: Dell Inc. is one of largest technology corporations in the world. Michael Dell started the company in 1984, and it sold computers built from stock components. Previously named PCs Limited, the company created the "Turbo PC," the company's first computer. In 1988, the company changed its name to Dell Computer Corporation. Dell sells personal computers, servers, data storage devices, network switches, software, and computer peripherals. Dell acquired computer hardware company Alienware in 2006, and Perot Systems, an information technology services provider, in 2009. Dell is also considered as the third largest PC vendors in the world, next to HP and Lenovo (as of 12/30/2013).
