The Dell Mini 5, 7, and 10 tablet PC is coming to the U.S. as the Streak.

According to Engadget, which first obtained images of the device, the five-inch model is due this summer — the same time as Dell’s Google Android-based AT&T smartphone, the Aero, which is expected in June.

The seven-inch model is expected “late in 2010″ and the 10-inch model in “early 2011.”

Darren Murph notes that the Streak will launch with an Amazon content partnership, meaning Kindle e-books and Amazon MP3s and video will stream to the device.

Is it or is it not?  Apparently, someone found what appears to be the next generation iPhone laying on a bar floor in San Jose.  If this is true, then someone is currently getting their ass chewed to an inch of their life over on the Apple campus or if it’s not, then someone did a damn good job faking this.

The other great news is that word has it that it will be 4G.  Now the only ones with 4G is Clearwire and their deal with Sprint.  Sprint customer treatment sucks monster ass and I swore I would never deal with them again, but 4G is insanely fast and has REAL unlimited bandwidth not the 3G fake 5Gb monthly limit.  So I could suck it up and get Sprint again.  Can’t be worse than at&t.

Check the photos for yourself and you decide.

When we say lamp, the first thing that comes into our innocent minds are the lamp and the electricity that will power it. However, designer Karin Johansson will open up your minds and eyes that having the right illumination can be achieved without the use of any electricity at all. Johansson’s dynamic lamp is a human powered lamp. It transforms kinetic energy to light using a dynamo that is placed inside the globe. As you spin the globe, it will immediately illuminates. This creation is perfect for today’s aim of saving on energy usage. In addition, those who are living in an isolated area that cannot be reach by an electric service, they can now have a safe and lighter light.

How often are you working on a project, from rewiring your home theater to tuning the rear derailleur of your bike, when you could use a hand to help illuminate the situation? Sure, flexible light stands have been around for a while, but the Gorillatorch combines the convenience of a tripod with the flexibility of a snake to let you secure the light in a variety of awkward situations. It’s from Joby, the same folks who make the popular Gorillapod flexible tripod, my personal fav.

Why is the Gorillatorch better than your Maglite? Rubberized and magnetized feet (strong enough to stick it to the side of a car), 65 lumen LED torch, dimmer switch, water-resistance, infinitely adjustable angles, collapsible, and it runs for up to 20 hours at maximum brightness on three AA batteries. And of course, it’s hands-free. Have you ever tried to set up a tent by yourself or changed a flat while holding a flashlight? Need I say more to justify the $30 price?

A gorgeous piece of thewant – a photovoltaic charger bonsai with 54 leaves, designed by Vivian Muller. The leaves channel electricity into a battery that charges your zonerun gear, from mp3players to iPhonesAndroids. (via tuvie)

Leaf is a concept mobile phone specially designed by getting inspired from photosynthesis with eco-charging ability. This bendable cell phone is wearable by the user and is charged through solar cells placed on its front. Aside from the solar charging facility, this device can be charged via electricity if charging is required in a cloudy day or during nighttime. The key objective of this project is to make people realize about their contribution to energy efficiency while using an innovative and highly functional gadget with a smart look.

Reality bites, especially with this 2880×900 px resolution 43″ model, NEC’s CRV43 that, quote, measures in with a 200 nits brightness rating, 10,000:1 contrast, 0.02ms “Rapid Response,” covers 99.3% of the Adobe RGB color gamut, and packs at least one USB2.0 jack and DVI-D and HDMI 1.3 connectors, unquote. The 32:10 ratio puts you in the designer and out the gamer league and the 8000 dollar price tag will make you think about chopping up your colleagues and selling them via the Ukrainian body snatcher community portal to keep up with what the display porn lobby has to offer you.

Called Infinite Energy: SIG, the sunglasses are designed to turn the rays that it blocks out into electrical energy, providing protection and power all at the same time. The sunglasses have a wire sticking out of them that you can plug into your gadgets (get ready to carry around a million adapters with you if these things are ever real) and juice them up.

When fire disasters occur in a building or a surrounded place where people can’t run away, most number of casualties happens because of smoke inhalation. The Fire Relief Respirator has been designed to overcome a situation like this by providing oxygen to people who are trapped inside a burning building. It enables the victim to wait longer for the rescue team, thus increases the chance of their survival. Whether it is a residence, office, hotel or any kind of high-raised building, Fire Relief Respirator can save quite a few numbers of people from dying by inhaling poisonous smokes that is produced during a fire disaster.

Another wonderful eco-friendly gadget from Devotec here called the Solar Sound Bluetooth Speaker. As the name suggests, this techie speaker is powered by the solar panels that are attached on top of this stylish speaker. This wonderful speaker is lightweight, portable, and yet was still able to provide crisp sound. The solar sound speaker can run up to 8 hours on medium volume and 4 hours on maximum volume. It also has an integrated Bluetooth and for an easy wireless connection to your multimedia players. The solar panels collect the sunrays on a sunny day and powers the speaker allowing its users to enjoy good music even at night. The touch screen display made playing your music easier with the solar sound Bluetooth speaker.

Yup, that little guy will hold a cool 8GB. (There’s also a 4GB version, in red.) And look a that, there’s a hole so you can stick it with your keys. Thanks, Verbatim!

It’s called the TUFF-N-TINY, and, yes, it’s a silly name, but at least it’s descriptive. It’s tough in the sense that you can drop it and it won’t break. It’s tiny in the sense that it’s small. Tough and tiny, check.

Let’s see, anything else to mention… well, it does work with Mac an PC, obviously, but sometimes people need to hear/read that in order to be sure. There’s no Windows-specific software here for you to have to deal with. Just plug it into your USB port, and away you go.

The 8GB is $50, and the 4GB is $30. You should be able to find it where you find such things in the coming days.
