Look out China, Dell is launching (or possibly just announcing) a new cellphone in the next couple of days. This is according to a rumor coming out of the TechCrunch camp.

Writes Michael Arrington, "Our sources on new hardware coming out of Asia tend to be spot on (we broke the news of the second and third generation Amazon Kindles, the launch of the Palm Pre and the existence of the second Palm WebOS phone and generally have good information on sales figures for iPhones, Kindles and other devices)."

In this case, however, he adds, "the information we've received is extremely thin." There's little info on hardware or software. The device is rumored to feature a touchscreen and no keyboard, and Arrington is venturing to guess that the phone will be running a version of Google's Android.
