Dell Launches First U.S. Smartphone

Dell released the Aero, its first U.S. smartphone, on AT&T for $100 with a two-year contract, making the company the latest computer maker to enter the competitive mobile device market.
Flash has become a high-profile topic since Apple chief executive Steve Jobs publicly slammed it, saying the software was unfit for its products.
Dell's move comes as profit margins from PCs grow thinner and thinner. Energized by Apple's success with the iPhone, tech companies looking to diversify their business are increasingly jockeying for position in the lucrative, but fiercely-competitive, smartphone market.
The Aero follows the launch of the Streak, the company's Android-powered tablet, already on sale through AT&T.
