Screen Grabs: Dell Streak serves as seismograph on Fringe, Android nowhere to be found

Screen Grabs chronicles the uses (and misuses) of real-world gadgets in today’s movies and TV. Send in your sightings (with screen grab!) to screengrabs at engadget dot com.

It ain’t the first time Dell’s Streak has been featured on a major network drama, but it’s probably the last where it’s used as a makeshift seismograph. Olivia managed to discover some fairly otherworldly facts with the use of this here handheld on a recent episode of Fringe, but mum’s the word on whether she’ll survive this season. You know — the Friday slot.

[Thanks, Michael]

Dell XPS 14 discontinued, will be replaced with something thinner and lighter

Sure, it was only about four months ago that Dell released its XPS 14, but unfortunately, those looking to snatch up the Core i5, NVIDIA GeForce 400M-powered laptop today will have a mighty hard time. Some keen-eyed tipsters noticed that Dell’s 14-inch mainstream system was out of stock, and a quick call to one of our friends at Dell confirmed that the smallest version of the series won’t actually be making a comeback. However, that’s not because the system didn’t sell well — Dell maintains that it actually exceeded sales expectations. Considering it was a very aggressively priced rig that doesn’t really surprise us, but why not bring it back? That’s where things get interesting, and we’ll give you Dell’s exact quote on this one…

“With the transition to Sandy Bridge technology, we chose to re-focus our efforts on incorporating this feedback into future thin and light products launching later this year. Stay tuned!”

Yep, it seems like Dell is gearing up to bring some Adamo qualities back in to the XPS brand, which is actually what were told last year when the company killed off the Adamo brand altogether. We’re staying tuned alright!

Dell Rosemount tablet will have Intel’s Oak Trail inside, stylus, removable battery and remote wipe

Dell means business with its upcoming Windows 7 slate, if the whispers we’re hearing are true — we have it on good authority that the recently-leaked Rosemount will be a Latitude. An inside source says that the 10-inch tablet will not only sport Dell’s storied business brand but will be geared towards enterprise through and through, with features like serviceable components (including a removable battery), software encryption and the ability to perform a remote wipe, and that it’ll have a dual-digitizer to support both touch input and a stylus for fine details. We don’t know about performance or battery life quite yet, but the slate will reportedly use an Atom chip, specifically Intel’s Oak Trail, so we’ll let you imagine the possibilities.

[Thanks, Anonymous]

Dell’s 2011 smartphone and tablet lineup leaked: Android Ice Cream, WP7 sliders, and a slate running Windows 8

Wrigley, Hancock, Millennium, Gallo, Sterling, Rosemount, Silver Oak, Peju and Opus One. What are we rattling off? Oh, just the list of codenames from one of the largest leaks we’ve ever seen out of Dell. WPCentral and Android Central got their hands on alleged smartphone and tablet roadmaps for the entire year, detailing the company’s plans for devices running operating systems that have yet to be formally announced, including Android Ice Cream (yes, Ice Cream!) and Windows 8 as well as the tablet-friendly Honeycomb. Here’s the full rundown.

Smartphones:

  • Things look pretty boring (and by boring, we mean beautifully curvy) until approximately mid-April of this year, when the Venue Pro gets some “additional features and enhancements” which we’re pretty sure we can name.
  • Then, Q3 brings the Wrigley, what looks like a vertical QWERTY slider identifying itself as “Windows Phone 7 Next Gen,” and sporting a 1GHz CPU, 4-inch 800 x 480 screen, and a 8 megapixel camera with 720p video recording. Nothing out of the ordinary, as far as we know.
  • By September, things should get very interesting as Android Ice Cream will apparently be out, and Dell’s Hancock will scoop it onto a 4-inch qHD screen with dual cameras, dual-core processing and 1080p recording.
  • Starting Q4, would-be Hancock buyers will have a dual-core multimedia slate alternative, as the Millennium drops the keyboard for a larger 4.3-inch screen and DLNA support (though the front-facing camera is limited to VGA resolution.)

Tablets:

  • Dell’s Streak 10 won’t keep us waiting for long: come April, the Gallo will reportedly be chomping away at some tasty Honeycomb. But that’s not all — Dell lists a handwriting update for the Gallo in October or thereabouts. There’s also a Streak 7 update scheduled for July — we imagine that’s the point when Dell believes it can shoehorn Android 3.0 onto its older brother.
  • Meanwhile, Dell’s 10-inch Windows 7 slate, internally known as Rosemount, is slated for June, with a 1366 x 768 resolution that should allow for native playback of 720p video.
  • We can’t tell you what the Sterling is, but it’s likely a mid-sized one, as it’s slated to take over the Streak 7’s duties in or about October with Android Honeycomb on board.
  • Finally, come CES 2012 in January, we now expect Dell to drop three new tablets at once: the Opus One and Silver Oak running Android Honeycomb, and the Peju with Windows 8. (The Streak 10 / Gallo will apparently soldier on.) Numbers on the left of the charge suggest that the Opus will be small, the Silver Oak mid-sized, and the Peju large.

As noted at the head of the slide, all details here are subject to change, but we’re sure as heck a lot more confident that Dell plans to do something with all those tacky mockups. One more chart after the break!

Dell Employees Arrested in Bizarre Marketing Stunt

arizona biker.jpg

How do you know when viral marketing has gone too far? If two having two of your employees arrested isn’t it, it’s definitely close. A SWAT team was called into Dell’s Round Rock offices, after multiple 911 calls reported the presence of a bike with a black mask on the premises. The man was holding “two metallic objects” and telling employees to “go to the lobby.”

Police entered the premises and attempted to intercept a man who reportedly refused to comply with their requests. Says a spokesman for the department, “If it wasn’t serious enough that elevated it to extreme risk scenario.”
Eleven minutes later, it came out that the whole thing was just a market stunt–one that apparently none of the other Dell employees knew anything about. Ultimately, two Dell employees were arrested–the man in the outfit and his supervisor. 
The reason for the stunt? Apparently they were attempting to promote the fact that a new Dell Streak tablet syncs to Harley-Davidsons. According to the local news, “Police say it’s a miracle none of the 400 people in the building were hurt.”

Dell employees arrested for poor decision making skills

Round Rock police responded to multiple 911 calls of a suspicious man carrying two metallic objects inside a building at Dell’s HQ campus. The “biker,” dressed in all black and wearing a skull mask, was yelling at people to “go to the lobby,” according to police reports. The ensuing panic resulted in the arrest of two Dell employees charged with interfering with public duties and deadly misconduct. Now get this: the incident was the result of a marketing stunt gone horribly wrong with the purpose of internally promoting a new product for the Dell Streak tablet “which can interface with Harley-Davidson motorcycles.” Because really, leather-clad motorcyclists are constantly complaining about the lack of peripherals for their choppers.

Dell Streak 10 will run Honeycomb, may share a body with Windows

Worried that Dell’s Streak 10 might pull a Streak 5 and ship with a aging, smartphone-specific OS? Fear no more — Dell told investors that the 10.1-inch Android tablet will arrive later this year with Honeycomb safely nestled inside. Also, it seems Dell may looking to consolidate the number of form factors and software platforms it supports, as an executive stated during today’s Q4 earnings call that the company’s other 10.1-inch tablet — a Windows device — could have the same shell. When asked broadly about the company’s tablet strategy with regards to other operating systems, this was the answer Dell had on tap:

For tablets, it’s Android Honeycomb and Windows, and we have customers with a preference for either one. We can create platforms that share a great degree of hardware commonality that can run both — or either — operating system, and we don’t see any other options that are worthy of consideration.

Guess we shouldn’t expect a MeeGo tablet out of Dell anytime soon.
