Dell smartphone to launch in China this week?

We haven't heard a peep about this from anywhere else, but the
inimitable Michael Arrington at TechCrunch says Dell's
gearing up to launch that
long-rumored smartphone
in China "within days." Don't get too excited, though: even
Mike says the evidence is "thin," and we doubt anything Dell
eventually brings out in China will have much bearing on the rest
of the world, since the Chinese government requires quite a bit of

product customization for the domestic market. Still, we'll see
what happens -- and if dell manages to produce something
a little more interesting than its previous efforts.
