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.

It's not officially available yet so how can he sell it? My guess is "pre-sale" is just a fancy term for "order now". If you buy this phone for $1799, you might if you are lucky get delivery a day or two before it hits the stores everywhere else. But by the time it does hit the stores the phone will be 40% cheaper. So if you want to spend several hundred dollars to get the phone a day or two early, go for it. I know myself I'll be waiting atleast three months after release before buying.
Looks like only $949 to me on that site. That is what I see on other sites as well. So this price is in line with others posted.

NO, I really hope that it isn't that worthless.

Now maybe, but a few days ago it was listed as $1799!!
$949 is more what I would expect for a phone of this calibre.

Question is, is 128mb of RAM enough for a WM device? WM devices are known to be memory hungry. I was hoping SE would up their game and throw in 192-256mb RAM, something unheard of (like what HTC Diamond is now packing) to address to the WM situation or perhaps as an allowance for future killer apps that may require a tremendous amount of RAM. I wouldn't have a doubt if it were running on UIQ

Are there any current WM apps that need that much memory?

I'm not referring to any single app, more for seamless multitasking

I agree more than 128 would not be unwelcome, but I think it will run fine with 128. That's still a fair bit of memory, expecially if you store Apps on the mem card. Personally I actually don't find WM to be that much of a memory hog. Poorly written programs can pull the OS down, but if you have a good suite of apps that run well, then you can usualy have a fair bit happening before it starts to grind.
Using a third party task switcher that allows you to fully close apps when you close them also helps the mulit-task situation. Why have programs running that you aren't using?

The question is, why not? Constant closing of apps reduces battery life and being a work beast that it is, unnecessary power waste is the last thing it needs
