I 100% agree with Dogmann. There is no way the phone could be worth that amount of money to more than a select few obsessive SE fans. The panel interface cannot really be that great, I have not been very convinced by what I have seen so far. It can’t be more than a show-off piece, or am I missing the point
You answered your own question
You should study the specs and preview vids a bit more. Check out the BengalBoy review, it's really informative.

@WhyBe
AT&T sell the Tilt which is their own branded version of the HTC TyTN2 do you really think they will wait longer for the X1?. Rather then sell their own branded version earlier and make more money from it? really you think that is going to happen with not just AT&T but all the other Networks as well as i seriously doubt that is what will happen.

As far as I know only AT&T and T-Mobile are the only major GSM in US. As I said in my previous post, I don't know if AT&T will sell X1 directly. They have the iPhone and Tilt so it isn't out of the question. Besides, there's an AT&T panel

Ok fair enough we don’t really have a good impression of the full capabilities of the interface or indeed the hardware, but is this super phone market really the right direction for SE?
As they are slipping behind with the market share what they need to do is carry on with what they were best at – high quality candybar handsets.
I think SE are a bit late to the game for these do everything touch screen phones, especially at the rate LG seems to be knocking them out

I think it is a good way to increase brand visibility.

Don't forget they started this whole super-smartphone thing with the P-series

Ok I see where you’re coming from, but if the X1 getting the SE brand out there, what’s it saying about SE? “I might look nice, but there’s not a chance in hell you can afford me”
because I think that’s something we all attribute to SE, we like and in some cases love their products but they charge over the odds for them, which will really come home to roost with something that’s pricey to start with e.g X1

Although i do tend to watch a lot of stuff on my device and that's where up to 30fps VGA H.264 comes in.
The overhead on decoding is not as high as encoding. All the white paper says is that it is limited to RECORDING at 15fps VGA playback is H264 (X1i) it doesn't mention what limitations. Plenty of handsets can play back video at much higher specs than they can record at.
