Android army: Dell to begin selling Streak tablet this week

Computer maker Dell this week will begin selling its Streak tablet computer, which runs Google's Android operating system.

Dell is marketing the carbon-black tablet to students, mobile workers and other customers. The Streak has a 5-inch multi-touch display; Twitter, Facebook and YouTube apps; Google Maps navigation; a 5-megapixel camera; and other features.

The Streak costs $299.99 for customers who commit to two years of voice and data service from wireless carrier AT&T -- or $549.99 without a contract.

Orders for customers who registered for pre-sales will begin Thursday, with shipping promised in two days. Sales for other customers start Friday.
