Adios Streak 5!

[JaxWeather]

I am so glad I bought a spare when I still had a chance to get them...

Gonna see how long I can keep mine going, it does everything I need especially now with Netflix finally working on the Streak 5

I wish I had a spare, but I know where I can find one!

The only time my wife wishes she had a Streak is when I am using Netflix or an ereader (Kindle, Nook, etc.). I have been keeping my eyes open for a second Streak lately and I hope that there is a replacement with a similar screen size in the near future.

I was just on Dell UK's site, the Streak 5 is still available for order there and you can add one to the basket and pay for it right now,
Nothing about EOL.

Suppose they are just cutting off US users?

That's what it looks like. I had read that it was "the Americas," but it's still available on the Rogers Canada website. Which is fortunate, because Rogers uses the same frequencies as AT&T. I might have to take a trip across the border to pick up a backup Streak.

Are they going to start discounting the "official" accessories for the Streak 5?  They need to drop the price on the home AV dock.
