@Boinng
Well you asked for the points people don't like and that is what you got
I am not sure your comments will change much, none of the guys I know that have them in Sweden like them, as for me I tried it and found it didn't DO anything more than my existing P1 W960 combo does, just less what more can I say.

Who said anything about changing anything?

I was just interested to see the arguments, since I came around to the Iphone idea a little while ago (waiting till October to get it).
Obviously Sweden still has some staunch support for the UIQ way of doing things, but for me it's history now. I'd take WM over UIQ for all its faults, but in October I'll be taking OSX over both of them.

I'm still trying to fathom there being 340MB of RAM on this device. I mean the numbers don;t add up as even if they included the 32MB on-CPU RAM to be part of it then that means they stuck an extra 52MB on original RAM or are making 308MB chips which wouldn't make much sense.
384MB RAM on the other hand would make sense but I'm reading reports Magnus confirmed it at 340MB. OK, so he might have confused free ROM for total RAM which would make sense but then probably not since ROM doesn't result in slow downs. I'm confused!!

So when the X1 launches on 30th september, how soon will it reach Sweden and the shops there then? You would assume the same day or the day after, but how can ut be that they doesnt have it before 10th october? I dont understand the prosess. Anyone who work with mobile phones in sweden who know when they will have it? I need it before 12.october when I'm going on a holiday

hehe

Wow !!!
I didn't realize there are so many limitations in Iphone. As for me, no keyboard let me down but now after reading the list....hmm there more than that.

Yes, I'm with you. It doesn't add up. Like I've said before, I'm of the belief that he's actually talking about remaing Flash ROM, not SDRAM. WM apps aren't that RAM hungry are they?

Well we can deduce he is not talking about total ROM as that has been established at 512MB! If he's talking about free ROM then I'm suprised slow downs come up in the same sentence that is why it would be believable that he actually knows he is talking about RAM. Although, upping the RAM so late in the day contradicting white paper specs doesn;t make much sense either.
To be honest 256MB RAM for WM 6.1 is enough but 340/384MB would really help open it up to the possibility of a WM7 upgrade next year provided there were no requirements for gfx standards such as OpenGL etc. as in true WM fashion I think the next iteration will most likely be more memory hungry!

Well, I'm not going to be against 384MB of RAM
It would be nice to know exactly what prompted the additional increase though.

Yes most definitely! I ordered a Touch Pro from Vodafone a few days ago deliberating which between the two I should go for quite intensively. However, I figured a flush screen and quick one handed use through TF3D would be more important to me than WVGA and 3.5mm. Though, if it is actually true the X1 has more RAM and/or better gfx drivers then I will promptly send the Touch Pro back!!

Well, I'll have to add you to my list of study subjects...people who choose against the X1 only later to come back to get one
Let us know how you like the TouchPro.
