Yes, we’re still waiting on the official release of the Dell Streak over here in the colonies, but abroad it’s already available, and MoDaCo ’s Paul O’Brien has taken his to the root. He’s figured out how to make the Streak a more willing partner for your su exploits, and has kindly shared the details.

It may sound like a mid-boss in some forgotten and poorly translated NES game, but Dr. Eye (aka the N18C) is actually a sort of keyboard-endowed MID from Inventec. This chubby clamshell sports a QWERTY keyboard, a 4.8-inch VGA touchscreen, 3G, WiFi, and a front-facing webcam.

The last time we saw eviGroup’s Wallet it’d been given an ’80s-style two-tone bezel and a January release date. Thankfully, the two-tone look has gone, but that anticipated date didn’t exactly pan out either. The MID is officially now shipping, with the base (chrome-free) model going for €199 (about $245).

Late to the touchscreen MID party, Chinese manufacturer SmartQ was determined not to miss another opportunity. That’s why it spent the month of April touting its new R7 e-reader as — you guessed it — the iPad killer. With the same ol’ 600MHz ARM11 and 256MB of RAM inside as its ho-hum MIDs, that claim’s quite a stretch, but our cohorts at Engadget Chinese actually found the Ubuntu-powered 7-inch SVGA touchscreen device moderately capable in a recent hands-on.

Good morning to you too, Dell ! Android Central’s just gotten hold of yet another leak from the Texan computer giant, only this time we have two new Android or Linux (as suggested by the Tux icon) Moblin devices. First, we have the Sparta netbook tablet featuring an 11-inch 1024 x 768 TFT display, ARM processor, optional connectivity modules (3G, WiFi, Bluetooth) and a unique swivel mechanism — the screen appears to be rotatable within its frame. The second device is the Athens sub-0.9kg (1.98 pounds) netbook sporting the same screen size, ARM processor and optional connectivity modules

Okay, so the last time we told you about an inexpensive Android tablet/MID things didn’t turn out so well .

What do we have here? Pasen, a company who’s been boring us to death for years with its MP4 players (and at least one full-on KIRF ) has finally come out with something we could conceivably see ourselves wanting to own. Crazy, huh

While making it crystal clear that this is only intended for developers that want a mega-early look at the platform, Intel and Nokia’s MeeGo team has just announced that the very first cut of the melded Moblin / Maemo mobile platform is available for download. Specifically, users of N900s , Atom notebooks, and Atom-powered Moorestown MIDs have all been gifted with their own distributions, which will boot off a USB stick or directly on the devices themselves. Sadly, the MeeGo user experience — the good stuff, that is — isn’t included here, so if you flash your N900 you’re going to end up booting into a terminal console, but hey, some of you sickos are into that sort of thing, aren’t you
