SEATTLE - Dell is officially jumping into the smartphone market this month in a deal with China's biggest wireless carrier, China Mobile Ltd.
The Dell Mini 3, a keyboardless touch-screen phone that runs Google's Android operating system, will also be available in Brazil later this year. The computer maker, based in Round Rock, Texas, would not say when the phone would reach the U.S.
Friday's announcement ends more than two years of speculation that Dell, now the world's third-largest PC company by unit shipments, would expand into the phone business.
