I have a Dell Streak. I've had 9 of them over the past 9 months. Maybe 8, I've lost count.(And kudos to Rogers Wireless customer support for finally getting me one that's okay and also waiving my 24 month HW upgrade fee.)<p>I've had 3 new and the remainder have been refurbished models. Problems that have occurred:<p>1) Batteries not included.
2) PDMI cable not included, just a microUSB.
3) Screen tinted blue.
4) Dead pixels.
5) Vibrator damaged.
6) Accelerometer sluggish changing values.
7) Case peeling off in lower left corner.
8) Poor WiFi connectivity
9) Refusal to wake-up/power-off
10) Unlock slider resets mid-swipe, unable to unlock phone without fiddling with the power button and retrying several times.<p>and<p>11) the ubiquitous back panel issue. It falls off, especially if in pocket. Coupled with issue #9 you need a pair of pliers to regularly bend the tabs so the back panel will 'snick' into place and stay there.<p>It's been pretty useless as a phone. But I use it as a testing device. If an app works well on the Streak...<p>Also, in airplane mode (with WiFi on) battery life is really good.<p>DoD has to buy American if they can, but these things can't be relied upon.
