While Dell may still be releasing Streaks and Venues in
other countries, a company spokesman tells
PC World that its last remaining phone stateside, the
Venue and
Venue Pro are no longer on sale. While the short lifecycle of mobile products was cited in the pair's time with us drawing to a close, the lack of replacements means Dell is out of the smartphone game in this country less than two years after entering with the
Aero and
Streak 5. While the spokesperson confirmed Dell would introduce more mobile devices in the US later this year, they could not say whether or not phones would be among them. We're not sure what the reboot of its product lines will entail -- other than a lack of connection to departed section head
Ron Garriques -- but at least it still has those
Thunder, Smoke, Lightning and Flash names in their pocket whenever something new arrives.
