Word has come from Dell that a 10-inch Android tablet, almost definitely featuring Android 3.0 Honeycomb, will be available in June of this year. And chances are it will not carry on the Streak naming tradition.

Earlier this week Dell mentioned that its 10-inch Windows 7 tablet would not appear until fall, so filling that tablet gap will be a 10-inch Android offering that was listed on Dell's product roadmap as an April arrival. Apparently April scheduling brings June tablets, and if the tablet codenamed Gallo stays on pace for June release we could see a very direct matchup between Honeycomb and webOS, as last reports slated HP's TouchPad for sometime this summer.

The branding of this new Android tablet from Dell is still up in the air, as the company works away from the Streak line and the stigma that’s become attached to it. With June right around the corner, we should have pricing, naming, and spec details sometime in the near future, as well as a more concrete certainty of this tablet’s release.
