Dell has been building 3G integration into its notebooks for quite some time now, and considering its wealth of experience in electronics design and manufacture, smartphones seem like a smart move.

Rumours are circulating now that Dell is either considering building a new range of feature rich handsets, or acquiring an established company already in the mobile field, such as Palm.
