Does the X1 already have a whitepaper? The X1 is a promising phone for WM users who wants to migrate to another brand of phone but same OS. I really hope it will not happen like us P990i users to X1..

Probably because SEs implementation of UIQ 3.0 is tied and optimized for the Phillips Nexperia 200MHZ CPU. P5i needs a faster processor therefore will cost them time and resources to rebuild the interface for it.

BEWARE!!!!...again...this same "underground" marketing was used for P990i, if you disagree then you have already been fooled. BEWARE!!!!... same thing happened, and again is happening. X1 is the next P990.
There is absolutely no evidence to suggest that X1 will have the same delays and problems at release as the P990. There are no parallel's whatsoever and you are simply scaremongering.

The reason for the switch from things like fastport was discussed here sometime back and also extensively in the courts. The agreement was that phone providers were given a certain period to standardize their charges etc to make it universal il find the article later i'm sure someone will before me.
That's simplt not true. Courts cannot force manufacturers to adopt standards. There is pressure from industry lobby groups to standardise chargers, but this is by no means a court enforced agreement. Infact it's not the mini-usb plug that is being pushed as the standard for all cellphones, it's the micro-usb. So get your facts straight.
The fact is there is currently no standard, and usb-mini operates only as a defacto standard. If the Open Mobile Terminal Platform (OMTP) group are successfuil, then micro-usb will be adopted broadly across the industry, which will make all existing mini-usb accessories incompatible with new cellphones.
Talk of industry standard charger connectors is only relevant to future devices, not those already on the drawing board (or in the market now).

Xperia is not worth buying....for me that is
Reasons:
1) No 5MP camera No Xenon Flash
2) No Fastport No M2
3) Made by HTC
4) Ugly Windows mobile interface inside
When is sony going to come out with a cybershot smartphone or a 5mp+xenon
walkman ? ?

Well the G900 isn't a "Cybershot" if that means anything, but it does have a 5MP camera with quite a remarkable camera interface and I'm expecting that apart from the lack of a xenon flash, its camera will be better than the K850i, especially with the cool touch focus feature.

For a person that hasn't wanted to pay the price premium for the Apple brand and the iPhone fashion statement because he derives no value from it, the SonyEricsson XPERIA X1 is a long-awaited welcome!
The touchscreen interface great as is the fact that the screen is 3" diagonally (though 0.2" smaller than the iPhone?). The inclusion of octo-band(?) network compatability will be great for international roaming and the aGPS is nice since I don't need it apart from when I'm bored or lost.
Web browsing with wi-fi will be very convenient though I haven't seen a screenshot of it happenning in horizontal mode yet.
Being pro-Microsoft, the inclusion of Microsoft Windows Mobile 6.1 is a great feature and together with the XPERIA 'experience' UI combines a good balance between multimedia functionality and the positioning as a business/go-getter's/early-adopter's smartphone.
The 3.2MP camera without LCD flash is a slight shortcoming but can be forgiven easily unless you're videoing a chav fight outside the bars on a Friday night.
All together, I think the X1 represents a fantastic value proposition and one which I would pay a (reasonable) premium for. I started with a Nokia 3210, then progressed to the wonderful P900, then the Nokia 7710, then to my current Motorola something (as the 7710 got stolen after three years service). I'll hold out for the X1 which will bring me back to SonyEricsson.
KUDOS.

Ahh an LED flash - great. Not an LCD - sorry, late night.
And enough with the 9-panel experience already! We get it.
Too many X1 Youtube videos

@Razec
As so many where happy to tell me that HSDPA missing wasn't important in UIQ smart phones and correct me if I' wrong but i don't think the yet launched G series has HSDPA or does it?
Many where and are happy to claim that plain old 3G was and is just as good would you care to explain just why you think HSUPA is going to be just so wonderful and useful for most of us? As while i still believe that HSDPA offers great benefits HSUPA i really can't see the benefit of in the same way and think a very small amount of users will find any use for it.
Also don't you find it strange that SE can announce a smart phone with all the latest tech in a new platform for them but not in thier own UIQ smart phone platform. Just why is all this tech great in the new platform yet not needed in UIQ?
