When it comes to cell phones the larger the touch screen the better right?

Well that seems to be the case now a days. It's no longer a fight to see who can make the slimmest most light weight device. Now it's all about the screen real-estate. Apple Inc stepped into uncharted waters when it released its iPhone with a 3.5" touch screen cell phone. Three years later HTC stepped it up with their EVO device. It sported a hefty 4.3" display.

Everyone though the fight was over and HTC would remain king when it comes to screen size. However, Dell upped the bar once more with their Dell Streak. It contains a whopping 5" screen. Most people have dubbed it the "Dell Streak Tablet Phone".

The average hand size of an adult male is 7.4" and 6.7" for females. The Dell Streak is 6" long, which means it will consume pretty much your entire hand while holding it. If that wasn't bad enough the Dell Streak is 3.1" wide, which makes talking on the phone quite awkward. There just isn't a good way of holding the device comfortably whether you talking on the phone or watching a video on YouTube.
