Design looks nice from the side, not too crazy about the front and back though. Specs aren't too bad either, could of had a better camera though.

i think this phone will be decent. specs are nice, but nothing that will separate it from the rest. these are only low quality leaked pics, but so far the design doesnt look that flattering.

Nope does not do anything for me nothing special. I really think this is going to be as crappy product as their PC's and Laptops.

Amen to that. I wouldn't trust a Dell pencil never mind Dell phone and even then there are enough decent smart phone manufactures without another crappy computer company having a bash:
Blackberry
HTC
Sony Ericsson
Palm
Nokia
HP (although HP are a printer company but at least they've been doing it a while)
