Laptop Thoughts: Details Leak on Dell's Forthcoming 7 Inch Streak

"The last few days have seen a succession of leaked photos and ads for the Dell Streak 7, the company's upcoming tablet. Engadget first published stills from an upcoming ad for the 7-inch tablet, and according to the images, you can expect a similar design to the 5-inch Dell Streak and the same Dell Stage UI running the latest version of Android 2.2."

Dell's five-inch Streak has garnered a few decent reviews, but in the end I think five inches isn't big enough for an ideal tablet experience. Despite what Mr. Jobs might think about seven inch slates, I think it's an ideal size that blends a fairly portable size (think jacket pocket) with a reasonable screen size. I personally think a seven inch slate is the ideal size for my needs; I'm hoping something will catch my eye at CES!
