Dell Looking Glass

The Dell Looking Glass is a seven inch touchscreen device that fills in the Dell tablet line ranging from the Streak 5 (formerly Dell Mini 5) to the Streak 10. The 800 X 480 widescreen format is easier to carry but Wired Magazine sees the Looking Glass as "neither as pocketable as a cellphone nor as large and engaging as an iPad".http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/04/through-the-looking-glass-7-inch-dell-tablet-with-tegra-2/ The Dell Looking Glass page will keep you updated as the Looking Glass moves closer towards a release date.

While clearly Dell's response to the iPad, the Looking Glass won't be available until November 2010 and the Streak 10 sometime in 2011. Analysts noted that the Looking Glass was not included in the May 25 announcement of Streak availability.http://www.pcworld.com/article/197070/dell_streak_tablet_coming_this_summer.html

Consumers may wait as the Tegra 2 processor is powerful and there will be Adobe Flash as the Looking Glass will run Android 2.1. On the other hand, the low resolution of the screen detracts from its other features like the optional TV tuner module.

The specifications reported at this point are leaked ones reported by Engadget.http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/dell-looking-glass-tablet-leaks-tegra-2-coming-your-way-in-nove/

Features and Functions

The Dell Looking Glass will run Android 2.1 on a Tegra 2 processor.http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/dell-looking-glass-tablet-leaks-tegra-2-coming-your-way-in-nove/ The Tegra 2 is NVIDIA’s high-performance, low-power tablet processor packaged as a dual core on a single chip with strong video decoding capabilities.http://www.pcworld.com/article/186369/nvidia_unveils_tegra_2_targets_android_tablets.html The Tegra 2 is appearing in the specifications of a number of tablet computers rather than smartphones.

The Looking Glass has a seven inch, 800×480 TFT screen whose widescreen shape may be a reasonable format for the screen size though smaller screens have the same resolution.http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2010/04/through-the-looking-glass-7-inch-dell-tablet-with-tegra-2/

Other features of the Looking Glass include a 1.3MP webcam, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and 3G and an SD card slot for memory expansion (it comes with just 4GB storage, plus another 4GB RAM).http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/dell-looking-glass-tablet-leaks-tegra-2-coming-your-way-in-nove/

An optional TV tuner module is available so you can watch ATSC or DVB-T programming.http://www.engadget.com/2010/04/21/dell-looking-glass-tablet-leaks-tegra-2-coming-your-way-in-nove/

The specifications are subject to change.
