I am suddenly much less excited...though still very excited, phone sounds awesome, still...*prays for drivers*]]>Feb 10th 2008 11:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/
What I can't believe is that HTC came out with something so nice and curvy; the rest of their handhelds look like generic bricks.]]>Feb 11th 2008 12:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/
Is this just another one of those 'rumors' that Engadget likes to post up every so often?

And so what if SE are using another manufacturer for this model? Every single Apple product in existence is made by another company (no-one complained about iPods being made by ten year old Chinese kids....). Apple don't own a single manufacturing plant.

Just another excuse to pile the hate on Sony.]]>Feb 11th 2008 7:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://mobilephoneonline.blog.co.uk/2007/09/21/sony_ericsson_moves_to_windows_mobile_wi~3015713]]>Feb 11th 2008 7:38AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 10th 2008 10:21PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/

Gasp! It isn't cut and dry. HTC may have actually been weighing tradeoffs and tried to provide an optimal solution for the most amount of customers. This is a company that continually provides free upgrades to new version of WM, even on some of their older handsets, which is something almost no other WM OEM does (samsung, moto, etc only do so very sporadically). They seem to be committed to actually supporting their customers, so one could hypothesize based off of their past behavior that they may be holding off on the drivers for a reason other than just laziness.]]>Feb 11th 2008 10:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/
It still isn't CDMA, though, so I won't be getting one anyway.

These were not inexpensive phones. Far from it. I paid top dollar. The 8525 cost me $650.00 because I was already on a contract with Cingular. People should understand these products are not rugged at all.

I'm not an iPhone owner or Apple fan or anything like that. But if a 3G iPhone comes out soon, that will be my next purchase.]]>Feb 10th 2008 11:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 11th 2008 12:46AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 10th 2008 10:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 10th 2008 10:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 10th 2008 10:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 10th 2008 11:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 11th 2008 12:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 11th 2008 12:09AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 11th 2008 8:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/then who cares.]]>Feb 10th 2008 10:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 10th 2008 10:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/
What would Android provide that my WinMo phone couldn't provide?

I'm tired of hearing some users cry "Does this come equipped with Android?" in a lot of phone posts.

As far as I can figure out, the only thing worth noting is that it's free. But aside from that (not sure how much WinMo cost on its own), I can pretty much do exactly the same thing on my phone. There's tons of add-ons and ways to extend your WinMo phone. It's very versatile, and it syncs up computer files pretty good for the most part.

So what's with all the Android-love going on here?]]>Feb 11th 2008 1:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/With a screen like that, it deserves better than just 16-bit support.]]>Feb 11th 2008 2:50AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/

Yeah, HTC has had some pretty bad press lately but there's a reason they have been the top WM OEM for years. I have owned HTC phones for the past 4 years and i can tell you that their build quality if a lot better than the nokia and motorola phones I have owned. And just because they have not released the video drivers for the past few phones does not mean they will be doing the same for this Sony device. Sony has a reputation that they want to keep up and I can assure you that this WM device will be quite nice.]]>Feb 10th 2008 10:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/no-wonder-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-is-so-good-htc-makes-it/Feb 10th 2008 11:04PM
