There's a interesting discussion going on over in MoDaCo's forums today suggestive of that Dell Streak units that were given out lately as part of the company's US beta test in and around Austin, Texas are no longer operation on AT&T, the result of an apparent IMEI block; voice calls placed from the devices all get re-routed to AT&T customer service, and 2G / 3G data doesn't work at all. Our sympathetic is that beta testers were acceptable to keep their units after the conclusion of the test period -- some of those ended up on eBay, naturally, so you can imagine that buyers are almost certainly feeling a little steamed by this. One user has had luck with data by using the iPad's APN and plan settings, but otherwise, there seems to be a bit of disappointment going around. We've reach out to AT&T to figure out what's going away on; we'll let you know when we have more.
