Any Android fans interested with this?

Looks nice huh? It's a little thinner than the iPhone. Look at all that real state. I think this will look good with sense UI.

I Don't care about the size. If only Sprint will have it. I will buy it regardless. Use it as a MID. Prolly use it outside the U.S. when i'm on vacation.

What does it get, like 17 minutes per charge? I would think with a screen that size it draws a hell of a lot of power.

Well, It's pretty much like the other devices. If you put a bigger screen, U will have a room for a bigger battery.

iPad has a 10 inch screen and will have a 10 hrs video playback time and 1 month of standby. So?

It will come in 2 versions. The one with a 3G which you make make as a phone ant the one w/o. I'll be getting the one with 3G thou. Just in case I travel outside the US. I can use it as a phone. But inside the US, it will be my MID tethered to my TP2. Nice!

Comparing anything to an iPhone is foolish. Their battery is better than anything I have seen with any other MP3 player or phone. The 1530 mAh battery on this Dell Mini can not last that long, I just simply do not believe it. We'll see when it is released.

Too bad it only has 256 ram, kind of a bummer for a device this nice. Is that xvga resolution? 480x854?

That is considered WVGA

Iphone 3G's original battery is 1150 mAh. If Dell did everything right, The Mini 5 will have no problem at all.
