This is not news. They said as much at 3GSM in the beginning of the year. Recycled news indeed.
20th February 2008 "The X1 is the first entry in Sony Ericsson's new "premium" (read, expensive) Xperia line; future models may be based on other operating systems. But observers say the company chose to stray from its Symbian/UIQ roots to reach out to corporate customers." http://www.pcwelt.de/index.cfm?pid=829&pk=148064
Android - Agree! T-Mobile announced it will start 3G soon and carry the X1 (speculation). Plus Google said it is working with T-Mobile and HTC on its phone. Sony Ericsson worked also with HTC... So it seems like it could happen. I hope so!

Android!
This was my first thought as well.... but then I remembered we're dealing with Sony here. It'll be their craptastic OS.
Why dont they bring out the, almost outdated, x1 before they talk about anything else already?
Seems like an HTC Touch HD w/ keyboard is gonna come out before the x1 (wishful thinking).

Maybe. . . Or maybe they'll make a special OS for their Xperia line.
But wait, what'll they call it, then - OS. . . X?
Heh.
I hope it's Android though. This phone would be the perfect platform for Android to exploit.
