I've taken a real liking to the openness of the WinMo platform lately. I saw my bud's phone with it, and I love how it's pretty extensible, and how well it could work with content from your computer.

This brand new SE phone really puts the icing on the cake!]]>Feb 10th 2008 8:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/Feb 11th 2008 6:43AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/
It runs Windows Mobile, Opera Mobile 9.5 is almost out, so, yes it does has zoom.

Although there are other win mobile browsers with zoom, Opera's the best, IMO better than Safari since it provides more functionality than it, like download manager, password manager, opera link, Kestrel-based(Opera Desktop 9.5) rendering engine: Presto which is quick as hell even on ajax-intensive pages, flash lite 3.0 support and others.

Opera Mobile 9.5: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cmbdu-YLZsM]]>Feb 11th 2008 5:34AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/Feb 10th 2008 9:37PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/Feb 10th 2008 11:09PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/
I don't believe for a second you own an iPhone. You are most likely a fanboy trying to to look cool. Fact is, if you did own an iPhone, YOU WOULD BE OUT OF YOUR MIND TO "take a liking" to Windows Mobile. It's really the worst piece of shit I've used. I'm currently using a Palm Treo 700P with a 7 year old OS that still kicks the crap out of WinMo. Recently I received an iPod Touch, and I am now definitely planning to get a 3G iPhone later this year. The mobile OSX is freakin amazing. I've never seen such a quick and responsive handheld device. I now find it very hard to have to use the Treo.
I was pissed too about Job's control of everything on the iPhone at first, but now that the SDK is coming out in 2 weeks I can't wait. I know that the platform will take off and developers will really make it shine.
But you go ahead with your windows mobile. I'll buy your iPhone from you.]]>Feb 11th 2008 4:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/Feb 10th 2008 3:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/Feb 10th 2008 3:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/if it performs like the ad shows then all looks good, otherwise look forward to SONYERICSSONCLASSACTION.ORG.

it seems to have have some motion sensing too, judging by the rotation of the screen when tilted...interesting.

Even on the high end devices (Tilt) screen rotation is slow and jerky.

I hope this new UI will also come to my HTC Touch. But my guess is anything with the likes of an Omap processor is out of the question. ]]>Feb 10th 2008 7:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/Feb 10th 2008 3:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MY4ay99Xc9w

This phone equals me wanting it

Good job Sony Ericsson, you've been making good phones, but this is something else awesome, then again, maybe im speaking to soon, lets wait and hope for some good real world reviews]]>Feb 10th 2008 3:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/Feb 10th 2008 3:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/Feb 10th 2008 5:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/
I'm a fan of many Sony products, like my PS3, but in terms of software, Sony seems to always focus on attention-seeking, flashy features instead of solidly programmed, sensible core features. Yeah, features like Linux-readiness, folding@home and the (mediocre) internet browser on the PS3 and Skype on the PSP are cool, but I always get the feeling that they're vain attempts to offer some competing features for the quality core functionality of their competition (like MS's Xbox Live and the excellent Media Center integration in their 360). So I'm skeptical that this will add much to the typical WiMo6 experience. If you pair this hardware, with what we've seen of WiMo7, though, I think it would be sweet.]]>Feb 10th 2008 8:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/Feb 10th 2008 3:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/http://www.engadget.com/2008/02/10/video-sony-ericssons-xperia-x1-panel-interface/
