Dell Streak vs HTC EVO 4G

[evankwh]

i have a great knowledge of phones and technology and have many phone i absolutely adore.
Heres a list of just a few
1. Dell Streak
2. HTC EVO 4G
3. Palm Pre Plus
4. Nokia N900
5. Upcoming Windows phone 7

I do love the OS of webos and would love it to be ported on android but that is another discussion in a different category altogether.
I have been all over the dell streak and as i live in the uk could buy it. i just love everything about it, but does it compare to the HTC EVO 4G.
Is its gaming better or worse?
Which is better at creating documents, watching videos etc.
In my opinion they are two very good phones but which is better?

When the Streak gets Android 2.2, that thing will be King (for a little while at least).

I just saw the video @ Engadget for the Streak. Even though it has Android 1.6 out of the box, I still love that thing. I do some web work & would really love having that big 5-inch screen with me when I'm out of the office and need to demonstrate something that is 'under construction.'

Even after the Streak gets 2.2, the fact that the phone is apparently going to be stuck at AT&T is a huge FAIL for me. I would never leave Verizon for AT&T. lol.

I won't pay $500 to Dell for the phone until I know for sure it'll have 2.2.

BTW, meant to ask -- if one buys the 'unlocked' version of the Streak, will the right sim card enable the phone to work on Verizon's CDMA/3G network? Or, is this thing just stuck on GSM/EDGE...end of story!?!

Unlocked or not, it is gsm only. No cdma, at least not yet.
