Earlier rumours that Dell would launch a smartphone in the U.S. in 2010 have now been confirmed. Dell CEO Michael Dell confirmed the news in a conversation with journalist Jean-Baptiste Su of TechPulse. The launch is expected in the first few months of 2010.
As rumours had suggested, it looks like Dell will offer a variant of the Mini 3i carried by China Mobile. Instead of running Open Mobile System, the U.S. variant will be powered by a more traditional version of Google Android. It also appears that Dell will add a customized interface and some additional services.
Look for an AT&T launch in early 2010.
