Dell Mini 5 gets Kindle partnership
Dell Mini 5 takes the fight to the iPad
Dell’s Mini 5 tablet that we saw as a prototype at the start of the year has appeared on some leaked Dell documents and now looks as if it’s codenamed the Dell Streak.
The Android-powered slate looks like another iPad competitor, and even looks as if it promises Amazon Kindle integration. It looks as if it will also pack a 5in WVGA (800×480) touchscreen, capacitive buttons, a 5MP camera with autofocus and flash and a front-facing VGA camera for video chat.
There’ll also be a veritable rainbow of Dell colour options, as well as the option of custom skins through Dell Design Studio.
But most interestingly, the leaked Dell Streak docs reveal that Dell has a content partnership with Amazon. That means the Dell Mini 5 might have Kindle eBook reader integration as well as Amazon MP3 and Amazon video.
What would you choose? The Microsoft Courier, the Apple iPad or the new Dell Streak? Let us know below…

I am concerned about all this ebooks on a tablet talk. Tablets aren't equiped with the electronic ink that dedicated readers have. They won't be comfortable reading devices.
