How well does the x1 works as a music player?
Most phones carry on playing music when it goes into stand by mode but WM (at least on the tytn) turns the music off when the on/off button is pressed or it goes into stand by mode by timeout.
Does the x1 carry on playing music when the phone goes into standby (powersave mode)?
Does the dpad work as music controls in standby (powersave) mode?
Long shot but does the volume keys work as previous/next when held down, as in Se's A200 phones?
Yes, no and no.

Guys just imagine this.
We are those few customers on this planet earth who are already ready with approx $1200 to buy the X1.
So you're planning to overpay by $300? Overseas Electronics in Chicago has the X1 available for preorder at $899.

We are those premium customers compared to the ones using the Walkman series or any other SE phones. I dont want to be treated as a prince because I am a premium customer but I think its my right to atleast not be kept in the dark. I aint asking for a free handset or anything all I want to know from SE is what ram will i get when I pay $1200 or its like a lucky draw where I pay @1200 to find out how much RAM it has.
We all know even if X1 has 256Mb we are still gonna buy it. We are still the potential customers but let us be a happy potential customers.
SE has learn to press the SILENT button when a customer wants to speak to them. I have never heard SE stating anything about the phone release, the FW release the changes in the new FM and all. I think they are taking us for granted.
I don't think it would be feasible for ANY company to address every rumour and speculation about it's products. They have their official documentation (X1 white paper), so that is their answer to all questions.
Think about all of the misinformation we get about the X1. It's always due to human error or bias. I'm more willing to believe
official documentation and physical evidence--not just the random website posting.
As far as what Magnus said during the release video, it is either A) human error or B) SE is now using some crazy scheme for counting RAM for marketing purposes. I choose A.

Thanks for the answers! I'm glad to hear the music doesnt cut out when the on/off button is pressed or the phone goes into standby. Some music controls in standby would have been ideal, without having to use the touchscreen. So that it would be useable as a mp3 player without having to get the phone out of the pocket.
Is there a torch function? (very important function, as always)
The only other Wm issue I can think of right now is the standard file browser is difficult to use with the finger cos of the small font.

Good luck to all owners and pre-owners of the xperia, I hope that this smartphone will give you the scope and enjoyment that you require, this is my last time on this forum take care all,
S.E sorry I lost my confidence in your company

They have been postponing the release of the phone all year, now theyve done it one last time it made you lose confidence in the company? Atleast just wait for the phone to be properly released, if it turns out it sucks you can say you lost your confidence, but so far all the reviews and user experiences have been very positive.

It does work without wifi, but won't work unless you've got internet access, either trough wifi or gprs/umts/hdspa
