well i didn't mean directly compare a desktop to a smartphone, just the general type of designs that are green lighted out of that company. for example, your telling me you can't look at a Dodge car and know who it's made by without seeing a Dodge logo? there are certain design elements that tend to stay pretty steady throughout companies.
and even comparing it to the Dell's Axim line, they weren't the best looking thing in the world to me either. Dell's products just seem to look clunky and cheap to me. i remember a girl i knew had a Dell DJ MP3 player, and compared to other MP3 players of the time, it was big and clunky.
sorry for the wall of text but just thought i need to clarify that i feel that in general, not much eye candy comes off of Dell's assembly line. they always function just as good as any other competing product (which is technically the most important thing), but they aren't much to look at, and looks are very important in the smartphone game now as companies try to rope in new audiences.
