During Oracle's OpenWorld conference in San Francisco, Dell CEO Michael Dell revealed the successor to the company's 5-inch Streak tablet. Codenamed "Looking Glass," Dell didn't provide any information about hardware specs or a release date, but our curiosity was definitely piqued.
Today Oracle provided a video clip of the conference, allowing us a closer look at the upcoming Android tablet. Again, there are no specs or even a hint as to when we can expect to see this beauty in stores, but that doesn't mean we're going to turn down the chance to get a look at it up close. From where we're sitting we see a headphone jack, what could be the search, menu and back buttons Android users are so familiar with and a screen lock button.
Rumored specifications for the device are Android 2.1 (aka Éclair), Nvidia's Tegra 2 T20 processor, a 7-inch TFT WVGA display (800 x 480), a 1.3-megapixel front-facing camera, 4GB of RAM, 4GB of internal storage, a microSD slot supporting up to 32 GB, and support for 3G/Wi-Fi/AGPS/TV Tuner connectivity. Word on the street is that the Looking Glass could see a November launch, and considering it's coming with Android 2.1, and not the latest Froyo build, we can't imagine Dell will wait too long before giving this thing an official unveiling.
Check the video below (skip to 1:30 for the goods); blink and you'll miss it though, as Oracle cruelly cuts the demo short at about 2:10. Sad face.
