Dell’s upcoming tablet-like mobile internet device has been officially named the Mini 5, perhaps due to the fact it’s got a 5-inch screen (although Dell claims to be doing other sizes as well).

The Mini 5 will have 3G, Bluetooth, WiFi running a customized version of Android OS 1.6. There are two cameras — one is a 5MP at the back and another one in front, of smaller resolution, which obviously points to video conferencing. That 5-inch capacitive, multi-touch screen is just enough to make the HTC HD2 look like a little brother.

Dell says this is just a technology concept (read: prototype) so the exact details are still sketchy and we might not even get to see it in stores any time soon. Still, I think a 5-inch MID running Android is just about right. This device falls under the same category as the Moblin-powered LG GW990.


Hello, I’m from Portugal and a 5-inch dell but I lost the charger, and no stores have scoured the charger sells individual, how can I buy?
