We knew good and well that Android 2.2 was sneaking out and making
itself active on Dell's unlocked Streak units, but now it seems that
the backlog of older units has been cleared. That has made way for new
stock over at Dell's US site, with a 16GB Carbon Black unlocked Streak
going for $579.99 with Froyo from the factory; the 32GB model is
listed at $678.99. Curiously, that 16GB model is $30 more than what
the unlocked Android 1.6 model went for back in August. Also, we're
left to assume that even the "unlocked" models will still be SIM-
locked to AT&T, though Dell does play up the fact that unlocked
Streaks can be used as a mobile hotspot for up to eight WiFi-enabled
devices without ponying up extra to Ma Bell. In related news, the long-
awaited Cherry Red Streak is also on sale in the US of A, but you'll
have to flip to page two down in the source link in order to find the
32GB and unlocked variants. Good luck wading through the options, champ.
