Rumour: Dell Streak to get GingerBread 2.3? Or will it?

It seems that Dell might release GingerBread for the Dell Streak, this from Amy Bivin from Dell responding to @Arc28 via twitter. If they are releasing 2.3 I hope they don’t draw it out like they did with 2.2.

I remember when I was looking at the OTA upgrade last year and asking Amy about it. For starters I bought my Streak from TeleChoice here in Australia out right for $749 AUD and use it currently on Vodafone with no problems, I asked Amy when would we see the Official update for Australian Streaks, response was that my Streak (All Australian Streaks) was locked to Optus network so would get in December 2010 when the carrier released it… If it was looked do you think I could use it on Vodafone?… Just goes to show they haven't got a clue. In the ending I did manually update it to the Official ROM.

Here is the extract from the Twitter conversation….

Launcher Pro+ on my Dell Streak

Since I updated my Dell Streak to 2.2 I lost a bit of the screen real-estate to Dell's new Stage UI, the new UI widgets looks ok but takes away the whole use of the lovely 5" screen.

I love to customise my devices when ever I get the chance, I did this on my old Axim X51v, Moto Q9h and the HTC HD2. Now I have added my Streak to this list with the use of a 3rd party Launcher software namely Launcher Pro+, I have looked at AWD Launcher, Open Home, Go Launcher but with these apps I was Not able to add a Dock background that looked good.

Here is my current setup, really happy with it, nice looking and simple.
