Dell Aero Gains FCC Approval Just In Time For Q2 Launch

5

The Dell Aero had already gotten a tentative release date alongside its bigger tablet brothers: its landing date was originally believed to be June 2010 for AT&T. Now, the device has been approved by the FCC just in time to meet that unofficial deadline. Its name has been confirmed to be the Aero by the marketing name field from the FCC report, with other confirmed specs being Wifi 802.11 b/g, BlueTooth, and UMTS 850/1900.

We expect the Aero to launch with Android 1.5 (bummer, yes, but there are plans to update the phone to 2.1 by the end of the year). It also has a 3.5-inch touchscreen and a 624mhz Marvell processor. I’d be hard pressed to get excited for this phone knowing Dell has so much more (and better) to come shortly after it launches. What about you?

The "Google Phone" sounded too awesome to pass up, so I bought a G1. The rest is history. And yes, I know my name isn't Wilson.

  1. Why on earth would they launch it with Android 1.5?

  2. i don’t even know why att releases this kind of garbage when there’s so many better phones on the market

  3. @elijahblake Why?
    Because they’re AT&T, that’s why.
    .
    (What? Do I sound like I’m losing patience with AT&T?)

  4. What has every single cell phone provider started with a little android device just to get people to buy that way when a new device comes out they early upgrade so they get more $$$

  5. Everytime At&t drops these underpowered old OS android phones on us it drives me that much closer to paying the ETF and jumping ship to Verizon. If the misses is so happy with the iphone she can pay for it all by her lonesome.
