Dell Streak : Android Tablet or a Android Netbook , supports Bluetooth Keyboard
Jul 26, 2010 Android Phones, Android Tablets, News
Did you look at the cool combo ?
Looks like a netbook but it isn’t a netbook , its the Dell Streak which goes hand in hand with the Logitech diNovo keyboard , its design feels so homely to the Logitech diNovo keyboard it fits perfectly in the mini cover of the keyboard .
Paring the Dell Streak with the diNovo is quite simple unlike the other Android tablets Streak supports Bluetooth keyboard with Bluetooth 2.0 . The diNovo has maximum compatibility with the Dell Streak and almost all of the function on the keyboard operate with the Android 2.1 powered tablet such as A-Z keys , Media buttons like Volume Up-Down , dual-mode touch-pad , mouse buttons . And few other controls .
But also few things to note here are
- The doNovo keyboard isn’t heavy enough to support the Streak, so it will fall over backwards
- The Streak doesn’t fit into the keyboard’s cover, like a native one , so you may need to do some modding
- The ClickPad in cursor mode is inconsistent.
- The volume keys do work but operation is reverse like volume up will pull the volume down and volume down will push it higher
- You cannot close the keyboard cover with Streak housed inside it because there isn’t sufficient room for it , so you will have to carry both the units separately .
Below are few interesting pictures and videos of the device and the way it interacts with the Dell Streak .

I’m certain many people agree with you but don’t nearly have the amount of people taking notice of them as you potentially do.
