Hi,

That was great to know that  Dell Streak is already available in india...At last my friend can  buy that one product in there place....

Thanks for the information that yu've share with us here..keep posting..

Thats great news ...would love to grab hold of one soon

As far as I know, it's not yet available for purchase and will be actually available from October 15 only. I think Dell and TATA DoCoMo are taking pre-orders as of now. Not sure if the streaks are going to be locked to DoCoMo or not - but I doubt it. The price is a shade below INR 35,000.

A sidenote - it would've been good if Dell had given a little more notice on this (and I'm talking as an Indian who got his Dell Streak from the UK a couple of days back).

where is hong kong..?

here already start to sell month before....

I bought streak this week in mumbai,india.The bluetooth is not working properly.I have htc hd2 as well.It pairs with hd2 but does not connect.I call dell service support no. at least three times,but I always got the same reply,give us your mobile no and someone will call you within one hour.I still have not received any call from dell.I came to conclusion that dell is charging premium price Rs.34500 for streak in india with out any support.In short dell is cheating indian consumers.I am taking this to local consumer forum.

Hi Amy,

I was about to place an order on dell.ca for a Streak yesterday, until my researching of this tablet found the announcement Dell made that Android 2.2 Froyo is now being made available to existing unlocked versions of this device...late December for unlocked versions.

When can I place my order for the model with this newer OS pre-installed (as oppose to the older Android 1.6 version)?

Thanks,

Helry

Dear vasant3, I too bought Dell in Mehsana, Ahmedabad Area. There are still some issues with Dell Streak which are hardware related. Your problem is related to 1.6 version which does not allow file transfer and can only be used probably for devices like headphones. The low sound continues to be an issue, whereas, with 2.2 upgrade your issue will most probably be resolved. Another problem is using your phone as a modem which was very easy with my earlier Symbiam SE P990i. With Android devices you are supposed to tether your device either thru USB or BT. This is a paid application if you want to access secure sites. Earlier I had no problem with use of my old phone as modem but this new application requires 3G, which is very irritating as signals continue to be dropped, otherwise it is a lot faster. The battery life, even with 1530, is very less, sometimes not even lasting a full working day. The pouch supplied is also a joke as it tends to wrap the protective film giving the phone a shoddy look. Going thru all these posts, one thing is clear, Dell is very poor at addressing its customers' woes, even though being touted as no. 1 computer company in India (source FT). Also there is no indicator except notification area for missed calls/messages (say how about a flashing LED). Although a nice effort by Dell, it still needs to catch up in few areas.

When are getting new colors, unlocked version at dell.ca and Bestbuy and finally FROYO????

Canada is left out again

Well, the joy and euphoria are quite shortlived as I join the disgruntled club from being a proud owner of Dell Streak. My phone lost all sound in the earpiece. Speaker and headphones are still in working order. This happened after only less than 2 months of use. I tried to find a solution on this site. But as the Dell has been made famous for treating its customers, I got the information that there is no warranty for my service tag and that it has expired. Quite clever. Dell does not gaurantee or warrantee its products for even two months. or i have to yet purchase the services. After 35k down the drain who would even imagine throwing good money after the bad one. well if anyone has a number or location where i can get my phone inspected, please do inform me as i have full faith on Dell not to respond to the problem till it is contacted directly again and again.

Hi Amy,

I ordered my streak from Dell.ca and I received my streak on 21st Dec but it died on 29th Dec. This unit is locked to Rogers. I requested tech support to send me a red one instead that is not locked(or unlocked) . Tech support is saying that I have to receive the replacement first, then start the return process and order the red one again, that means i will be without device for a long time. I suggested tech support to send me the red unlocked device as the replacement that will save time and money for "Dell" as well as for me. Can you please help me.
