I might later, but for now, my mouth has a bad taste in it from Dell’s business ways. You see, I have been a customer and supporter of Dell for quite a while. Just like with Geico (been with them since 1991), I have been using them since before they were even cool. Dell becomes successful in the Pocket PC Market, they quit. Dell started seeing success in their 2nd gen Dell DJ MP3 players, they quit. Dell comes with a Tablet PC 2 years too late, it’s overpriced. I just have no enthusiasm about Dell anymore.

Now the rumormill is buzzing that Dell and Google will be announcing that Dell is going produce one of these “gPhones”. 

Speculation is mounting that Google is plotting the launch of a mobile phone in partnership with computer giant Dell.

Senior industry sources claim the two companies will reveal their plans at next months 3GSM telecoms conference in Barcelona, al-though Google insiders deny an announcement is due in the near future.

But the rumours will once again throw the spotlight on Google’s mobile strategy, which has been the subject of much conjecture over the last year.

What ever happened to the simple Windows Mobile Smartphone that Dell was rumored to be working on last year? You see what I am talking about. Nothing but disappointments from Dell in the last couple years.

Oh by the way… Not sure how much stock I am taking in all this considering this comment…

Dell already produces personal digital assistants (PDAs) and strategy analytics director Neil Mawston says: It makes sense for Dell to have a high-profile entry back into the market because its last effort with PDAs pretty much flopped.�

Dell’s PDAs pretty much flopped? What the hell is this guy smoking? Sure, they quit, but they surely didn’t flop. Oh well.
