Oddly, selecting the bundles and taking the order to checkout just adds a (Carbon only) Streak to your basket with a price of £459 + £20 delivery. There is zero mention of any accessories being added to the order and this problem is further compounded by the Streak model selection page.

On the model selection page the two bundles are described incorrectly as well, the media bundle says:

Dell Streak - Home AV

Discover new places with Google’s turn-by-turn voice navigation & Streak’s built-in GPS device

While the travel bundle says:

Dell Streak - Car kit

Watch your movies or TV shows in stunning detail on a 5-inch high-def screen or use home dock station.

So if you are thinking of buying then I would wait for further clarification from Dell on exactly what is included in the bundles!

Now I don't know whether to get the Red or Carbon :(

Ahh you could but would you be able to describe it as "automotive-grade paint finish"? :(

I've been thinking of throwing a carbon fiber skin on mine (not that cheap vinyl that looks like it, the real thing).

The fiber kits are inexpensive and the protection would be phenomenal.

That sounds interesting, do you have a link?

Would the skin affect the signal strength in anyway? You don't want to end up with an iPhone Flaw :(

Do o2 stock it in red or is it still only black?

good observation, my searches show it probably does block signal.

would have to move the antenna to so this I should think.

I wonder if there is a way to retrofit a different colour back pate. Carbon weave would look awesome!
