I said goodbye to this device since i heard about the x2 releasing date about a month ago..
I wouldn't touch the Nexus with a 39 & a half foot pole! There is nothing, absolutely NOTHING better in the Nexus over Rachel or X10. The bootup screen, possibly but nothing else. And I refuse to play with a 3yr old trackball technology on ANY smartphone. Been there and done that for 3mths with a BB Curve 8310/8300. Even RIM began to abondone that in 3 of their newly released smartphones (1 of which will come out for CDMA carriers).
With Ericsson owning serious patents and technologies along with ongoing contracts that Nortel Networks sold to them, SE is in a PRIME position to take advantage of Verizon's LTE development network - yes its already in testing and it'll launch (rumored) nationwide across USA late this year. No it won't be the first LTE deployment but possibly the largest initial offering, who knows. But its MAJOR chipset cheddar for Ericsson LM and this trickles down to future Android chipsets that
will use for sure in the future. Well let's hope.

ARM based SoCs usually take years between unveiling and retail. This is because the OEMs have to code and compile their ROMs for each platform. Even the OMAP3 had to wait almost 2 years before a phone sporting the same was unveiled.
Tegra 1 is based on ARM11. Both Snapdragon and OMPA3 are based on Cortex A8. The only place where Tegra trumps the other 2 is in power consumption. It's better suited for PMPs such as the Zune rather than a seriously productive machine. Tegra 2 however looks impressive. We'll see it in 2012, I guess.
If the world's still around, that is.

Or the best scenario we could see Tegra 2 powered phone from SE in MWC 2011 next year.. SE usually spent 6 month - 1 year to develop phone from scratch..

Nokia/Samsung/HTC/Apple
will be all over the new A9's. im using an A8 right now, and its good, really good. so who knows, lets wait and see, all those features are power hungry and battery technology isnt increasing with the rest of the parts of these mobicomms (mc). so it remains to be seen, but i like snapdragon.

Doesn't sound like Nokia style given the hopeless processors in their 2009 range excepting N900 and that's adequate - no more.

IMHO the Trackball is an excellent feature Sony Ericsson have missed for the X10
As for Sony Ericsson owning patents etc, as they cant write SW worth a damn I fail to see what benefit it will give them tLets not forget they still have the X10 in the lab with issues and an out of date OS version! and wont be delivering until March if we are to belive to posts here. The X10 is a nice looker and has some great "ideas" built in but it is not ready yet and I feel NEXUS has just upped the Android ante it is here NOW!
