They should just scrap the X1 its just going to end up another mess like with the P990. By the time it comes out people will be focused on other things. But at least it should be cheap.

@bavlondon...
well really???.... can you tell me what my final exams marks will be?
i just tought that you are aware of the future.
but correct. if the X1 is going to be another P990; then they should cancel it now or correct the software BEFORE release.
i still can't forget what SE done to us with the P990.

People were so excited about the X1 till the HTC Diamond announcement
, and of course Eldars comments. We'll whatever said and done, its still the phone it was at its announcement. Reduction of a few plugins few people would use is'nt going to change that
. Little do people realize that there are more than enough apps already developed to make the X1 a good buy depending on the pricing.
THe next HTC with a keypad may actually be thicker than the X1, which still looks extremely professional, and with a full metal body it should feel good as well. I hope the screen is of better quality than the TyTn2(material wise).
I fail to understand why Eldars comments affect peoples judgement on the phone, I understand if it was a non smart phone, then you're stuck with any old rubbish they throw at you with respect to apps, but this is a smartphone, not just any smartphone but its powered by WM
, the number of apps avaialbe for it are countless and increasing by the day. Most probably even if it comes with all the plugins etc, you'll end up using a 3rd party application to do the same job. Eg: Even if SE's media player is so fancy I'd still use coreplayer, it supports almost all know codecs and video playback is fabulous. So I think before jumping to conclusions I think we must be patient to see what the end product has to offer.
If SE want to target the buisness market they'd either need to go with S60 or WM because of the app support, and they've chosen WM, not to bash UIQ or anything but I really cant see anything all that special in UIQ and the number of devs are far fewer. I like UIQ used to use an M600i and used a P1i for a while, but the OS feels lacking in some ways. I at least hope the newer version has some sort of kinetic scrolling in the least, cant imagine pulling out a stylus or using a finger nail to scroll on todays touch screens

how can it be another P990, its not UIQ
, the platform it has been built on is tried and tested and is basically and evolution of the TyTn II which has won several accolades and would have been "perfect" for its time if it was'nt for the 3D driver fiasco.

What's the deal with these WinMo GUIs (TouchFlo 3D and Xperia)? Is it the chipset or the OS causing the graphics sluggishness?

WIth the Xperia it could be the 3D drivers have'nt been implemented yet. I did'nt see much slugishness with the Diamond, and according to several people who were present at the event a few models were a bit sluggish while others were quite fluid in their animations(reference from
www.modaco.com). It depends which ones video you saw. It might be that there were different builds as test phones. And as you see from the videos the RAM claimed 128MB when in reality it is going to be 192MB, so there will be a hardware upgrade before release.
Also while testing a "test" WM6.1 ROM on my TyTn II, the device became sluggish, this is due to improper optimization of the OS while compiling. Might have been a similar problem as they were all prototypes.

On another forum about another phone, this guy posted some pics and a link to his site. He has the X1 on a "pre-sale" basis for
$1799!! That's gonna hurt! The rest of his prices are in line, so it's not like he's posting wild-ass prices all around. If that's any indication of the official price at release, well, that's not good.

Well, the truth ... I do not think they saw the P5 is possible that these two teams are given some of the most orders do not believe that one already possesses the 5MP and another 6.0 windows myself hope that the P5 exit the 3G 850

Could not care less about this...SE should have let HTC handle the software part also, they are way more used to develop in WM...SE should have their engineering resources focused on UIQ, not on this....
Xperia with TouchFLO 3D that would be great!
