Dell tablet gets nod from FCC, on track to debut at Consumer Electronics Show
Endgadget reported that Dell's Mobile Internet Device, more commonly known by its codename Looking Glass, got its nod from the Federal Communications Commission Monday morning. The tablet, which the site is calling the "iPad eviscerator," is a seven-inch version of Dell's Android-powered Streak.
According to Endgadget, the FCC has given its blessing for the tablet's components, which include integrated 3G, Bluetooth 2.1 + EDR, and 802.11n WiFi radios.
The gadget is expected to debut officially at the Consumer Electronics Show next month.
