I just remembered, the X2 has a resistive screen, right?
If I'm not mistaken, the speclist of WinMo 7 demands a capacitive screen. WHich means the upgrade may be trickier than I thought.
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.
i do believe you are correct about win7 needing cap screen. but do we kno what's rumored and what's real with the x2 yet?
some are saying it's oled screen. while others aren't sure what it is..? idk.. lets hope cap screen isn't THAT important for win7 to work :/

it says NOTHING of capacitive screens being necessary only mutitouch and with:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o26cjgzRnkc (stantum's resistive multitouch displays) it would seem that resistive is better than capacitive, its more accurate, AND can sense pressure, as opposed to merely a charge. i would MUCH rather have a stantum resistive screen than the iphones which is woefully inaccurate for my hands, cuz they arent soft which apparently helps in my non scientific testing, ive actually had to work in my day so the skin is thick and tough, doesnt work well with capacitive screens (incl. g1)

So true on os optimization! It would be futile to have all the bells and whistles and have poor implementation of the os.
You'll find quirks like a sluggish phone and terrible rendering of images for example. So, for me, optimization takes precedence.

what i hope for is just about having mobile device work like a pc or laptop but i doubt this is preferred....anyway you never know...there's some finnish startup i think called avax trying to implement Atom chip for their phone.
one day it could just be the industry is having hardware maker and then a group of os maker just like we have in computer industry.

SE HAVE to contract with these smart guys
with this even the Satio or any resistive screen smartphone can multitouch with a better software than the one putted on by SE (maybe symbian^2 could allow this

)

All of your prayers have been answered! Google search for: 'Sunno S880' and behold the awesomeness. Slap the

logo on it and nobody will suspect it. On a serious note, its a fantastic idea so maybe a more established manufacturer should nick the idea. WinMo during office hours and then Android in your own time, that is fantastic.

you have to wonder with multitouch solutions so prolific are OEM's going to outsource and utilize a technology such as this? you have to wonder about OEM's esp SE that make phones for markets other than latin based alphabets, this supports stylus inputs and multitouch in a way and technology that is already widely implemented.
it sickens me when ppl say if its not capacitive im not getting it, well if its stantum resistive then your selling yourself short. i guess ppl just dont know, or have the time to inform themselves on tech, thats been licensed since last year, and not whats popular now. i however would like a glass screen, but at the loss of glass to have a more accurate touchscreen im all for more accuracy!
has anyone here been invited to the X2 announcement?
