In Gizmodo vid the guy sais it has 1500mAh battery (or 1400mAh, I'm not sure cause of his accent)

Screen is pretty mirror like at certain angles!

Um. The X1 is clearly a consumer device, not a business one. All the X1 information is about how it is a "premium multimedia device" and all about "the experience". Its clearly being aimed at the iPhone, not as a business phone. Theres little mention of business features for the X1.

I think the P5i will continue to be SEs business smartphone of choice. Certainly the P5 should include all the "fun" features as well - music, movies etc, but that doesn't mean it won't be marketted at serious users.

Both devices may be equally capable (I hope so, and I hope they both look as sexy) - what it usually comes down to is how they are marketted, and its pretty clear that so far the X1 is NOT being marketted as a business device.

I think alot of people tend to see Windows Mobile as a operative system primarily for business purposes, which is why I'm currently _really_ interested in seeing their strategy with the X1's marketing in relation to the launch of the "P5i"-handset.

I have problems seeing alot of "serious" users using the X1, I think they'll find this phone to have too much of a bling-bling character.

Strange is what it is, but alot of fun and bloody interesting.

Cheers!

Interesting in that FAQ video he clarifies that its aGPS not built in GPS - so it seems it doesn't have real GPS, just the aGPS software capability. Looks like X1 users will need that GPS headset after all.

He is referring to the imaging phone not the X1, and aGPS is assistedGPS if there is no GPS built in what exactly is it assisting???

I dont see why itd need the headset. Not only functionally, but that would be silly design, having to have a headset plugged in when all you want is the GPS function, the headset would just get in the way, as youd have the handset on the dashboard or something. Also, would this headset work with the 3.5mm jack? Dont think so. How else? Beats me.

I may not understand aGPS, but I think its a service whereby a mobile phone could use a fixed base station to improve accuracy and speed, and reduce the need for on-phone processing power by doing some of the GPS signal processing at the base station. The base station can use the phones cell-site to help pinpoint it, and thus reduce the time it takes to get location fix.

I'm assuming that it would let the phone, in conjunction with an external GPS unit, improve its accuracy and time-to-fix...

If the X1 had proper GPS, surely they would make more of it? Its still not that common in phones that people take it for granted... theres no mention of mapping or location based services.

I'll have to watch the video again when I have a moment, check which phone he is talking about. Since its an xperia FAQ, I assumed thats what he was refering to.
