Michael Dell revealed his company will start shipping smartphones in the US next year:
Dell has been rumored for several months to be announcing an agreement to provide its Android-powered smartphone to AT&T for the U.S. market. Dell confirmed this to tech journalist Jean-Baptiste Su of TechPulse and the French News Agency and told him that it will happen probably in the first months of next year, Su told eWEEK.

Dell launched its mini 3i smartphone last August in partnership with China Mobile, which uses a specially designed version of Google's Android software called oPhone OS. However, for the U.S. version of this phone, Dell may use an older Android version and make minor user interface and service tweaks, Su wrote in his blog.
