Yeah. I wasn't really interested because with a UI that heavily customized, that thing would never get updates, but it is curious that even Dell and At&t seemed to have forgotten about it.

Maybe all these reports of the Dell Streak launching soon on AT&T is really for the Dell Aero..
No, they're different devices. There hasn't been alot of fanfare about the Aero though. Really, it's about as ignored by the general Android community as the Backflip has been. I believe from what I had seen about it's specs, it's relatively underpowered as the Backflip is also.
Yeah. The Dell Streak is like an even bigger EVO 4G. I may be wrong, but I think I read somewhere that it has a 5in. screen. I remember hearing about the Dell Aero, and I never garnered interest either because of the UI. Something about it seems not so Android-ish.
I'm sure that people saw this UI and thought iPhone and they were not interested.

It's like iPhone mixed with a little bit of Vista... Ehh.
i liked the iphone because of its speed. it's quick loading up apps and its transitions are smooth. but vista was just horrible all around.
