We’ve been following the Dell Lightning Windows Phone for months; but today the Lightning is no more.
The Windows Phone 7 device from Dell, code-named Lightning, will be sold as the Dell Venue Pro. We’re not sure who’s doing the naming at Dell these days, but they might want to go back to their previous work naming television models.
Not much is changed other than the name. Many details are still missing. But we do know that the 4.1-inch QWERTY slider will be available with T-Mobile first, with AT&T nowhere in sight (at least in the immediate future). The Venue Pro also won’t be sold, according to Engadget, in T-Mobile stores; you’ll have to order it from Dell or one if its “handpicked retailers.”
