Because there is no need to as the Xperia has not been released yet. September is a lifetime away!

Summer flies so fast away...

BTW: I don't agree with the hype too, but I will buy the X1 not for the panel interface and not for other sliding windows or any other shiny things. I need to replace my 4 year old Mio558 (QVGA) PDA and my really slow M600i UIQ3 smartphone with a powerful WM device, that has qwerty keyboard. So simple. And X1 has the power for these in a small size (a little taller and thicker than my M600, but that's it, it is really small) And yes, I have good eyes for a small screen xD

@fytk

As it happened Ericsson manufactured the most advanced technology in their devices and they also had great build quality and reliability. For instance the the microphone and speaker where sourced from B&O which is why sonically they were always the best. However there designs were very reserved and understated and their marketing was lacking.

On the other side you had Sony whose Marketing and design flare was excellent but whose quality was lacking. So it looked like a marriage made in heaven to form a JV and for while it was very successful as witnessed by SE's market share and growth. But in this initial period they were still feeding off Ericsson R & D and the products this brought. Once this dried up is where IMO the problems started and up to now continue, this is why many of us long for the good old Ericsson days and Ericsson is one of the oldest names in Telecommunications it has been going for hundreds of years and only in telecoms. It still has a strong Network business that brings the latest tech to the market even today.

@EMSO6

There is one area that the E90 is superior to the yet released X1 and that is in Video recording and playback. In fact it is one of the things that the E90 is without an equal in as although the N95 and a few others equal it they don't have 4" 800 x 352 screens nor do any other devices.

We'll I still doubt the capabilities of the X1 processor, especially the 7501A processor, although its about 200Mhz faster than the X1 processor it is yet to be seen if it is superior. If the OMAP 2420 end up the winner then the X1 is out gunned . But the X1 is smaller and more pocketable which is important for a cellphone , so ................

Yes I know they're on different operating systems, we had a huge debate regarding this on page 70 or so. I personally prefer WM. And performance of the hardware will vary because of the different Operating Systems, to compare them in a real worl situation we would just have to wait for its release



In the tech world , some products are out dated even before they release, eg: ermm... X1? , but that does'nt mean I wont consider getting it, depending on the next HTC announcement.

@Dogmann

I'm trying to understand your point. As far as I know and based on the specs sheet of the "two" versions of the X1 one records at 30fps (Europe) at Vga and the other at 15fps (Americas). So, what are you saying is it that is different with the E90?

@dogmann,
is this sony + ericsson merger for good or is it for a specified period of time? can both companies go back to being solo companies again?
@nightblade,
the rate at which phones are being announced & launched in today's cellular world 4 months can be a lifetime.
the x1 might just end up being another p990i or worse.
let's not forget that the x1 is se's 1st step in unfamiliar territory, in this case windows mobile.
with the e51 nokia has replaced the symbian swirl key with a windows mobile like home key. this could be an indication that nokia might be planning on a windows mobile phone which just might hit the shelves before madame xperia goes into labour.

X1 DELAYED!!!

Latest from Mobile-Review:

"Right now there is an interesting situation unfolding around the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1. While SE is experiencing some difficulties with software for this device and cancelling all previously scheduled release dates, HTC rolls out its latest and greatest Diamond, sporting a pretty much identical feature set in the sense of both hardware and software (while the TouchFLO 3D and the X1’s UI aren’t really twins, they seem somewhat resembling)."

Delayed from when? Delayed to when? We don't even know the release date for the X1 yet xD There is the "second half" announce from SE (that was in February) and the 'leaked' Handango mid-september. I think: when it is ready.

There is too much hype and expectation around the X1.
