Dell Aero Available Today

Dell Aero available today for $100 (with AT&T contract)

When your principal advertising point is always that the Aero is “one with the lightest Android smartphones,” you could have a trouble but right here it can be: the Dell Aero on AT&T, finally shipping for $299.99 ($100 with contract). If you’ll recall, the Aero is a smaller Dell Streak with a fairly unique UI focused on social media and usability. We’ve been excited about this for quite a while so let’s keep an open mind but it’s been so long and the Streak is, quite honestly, quite good, so does the world need a Dell phone?

The Aero, you see, runs on Android 1.5 — an early version of Google’s mobile operating system that’s 16 months out of date and a lifetime behind in functionality and performance. For a brand new phone to be shipping with a year-old version of Android is simply embarrassing, both to Dell and to the image with the Android brand.
