We've heard tons of rumors about a Dell smartphone in the last six months or so and if this week's rumors prove true, China is going to see the fruit of Dell's labor in the next few days.
This past weekend, TechCrunch cited a source who, claiming to have knowledge of the situation, said Dell is at the very least announcing (if not launching) its smartphone in China in just a few days time.
Michael Arrington reports that while hardware sources in Asia are usually very reliable, information on this rumor is still thin on the ground so we'll have to wait and see how this one pans out over the coming days.
Rumors about the Dell smartphone have been circulating since March. Analysts later reported that a prototype developed by Dell had been rejected by carriers for being too boring.
We'll keep you posted and update if we hear back from Dell.

Boring...China...sounds like a perfect fit for their Government. It may actually be approved for distribution.
What the hell? Might it be the person they're talking with who's boring? I don't understand this one.
I wouldn't buy it if i were a china resident... cell phones will probably be banned soon
Fake rumor. China banned cell phones because too many free thoughts were getting out.
Why China? The government will see that the phone allows people to talk to each other. So they'll ban it immediately.

Because it is built there, out of lead! The main features include Bad reception, heavy, and it poisons you slowly. The suggested retail value will be your first born son.
It is an American company, I wonder how long it will take to come up with some excuse why it can't enter the Chinese market. Then the next week there will all the sudden be a new Chinese startup company Derr with a new smartphone for the local market.
^ "new Chinese startup company Derr" i thought they could not pronounce "r"
They CAN pronounce "R", just not in the region of Hong Kong.
Derr.... good one! lol
