Michael Dell clinched shareholder approval on Thursday for his $25-billion offer to buy and take Dell Inc. private, ending months of conflict with the company’s largest investors and removing the uncertainty surrounding the world’s No. 3 PC maker.

A final tally will be read out a little later, as the meeting is still under way.

It has been more than a year since Gingerbread was announced, and we don’t know if Ice Cream Sandwich is supported on this device, or will ever come officially. Although most Streak users, including our very own one was ported to a custom rom a long time ago. Those who still enjoy their device on 2.2 can update it to official 2.3.

The netbooks appear to be missing from the Dell India site swell so it looks like a global deployment.
Apparently business/enterprise clients can still get the Mini for large scale orders.
