Dell disclosed yesterday that it was preparing to enter the Smart Phone business, adding to the escalating competition as mobile handset and computer makers converge on one of the only parts of the personal technology market still showing strong growth and profits. Confirmation of Dell’s long-rumored intentions in the mobile market came as China Mobile showed off a model of a Dell Smart Phone running Google’s Android operating system. Dell described the handset as a “proof-of-concept prototype” and said that the company was working with the Chinese mobile operator on launch plans. Dell did not disclose further details or timing.
