Can't comment if HTC are involved.
Why can't they comment on that?
Are HTC embarressed working with SE or what?!
That's just silly. |

or maybe the just dont know for sure?
Even if people knew HTC had a hand in it, im sure it wouldnt affect sales. Especially since HTC seem to be making decent phones currently!
Again, every one knew already HTC were contracted to make WM devices for

What's the chance that HTC will release it's own version of Xperia X1 but under different name? Take for example the HTC TyTn that has a different name when sold by Dopod. Will X1 be exclusive to SE only? |

There could be many reasons why they don't want to comment that. Many secrets in this business. Today I talked to TAT which has developed part of or the complete user interface framework in Sony Ericsson, Samsung (and was it LG?) devices. Their are currently found in over 55.000.000 sold mobile phones. Then I asked them about Nokia. Were their products implemented in Nokia devices? "Nothing official" they said. Does that mean they have or are delivering something to Nokia? In any case, a NDA does probably prevent them from telling this.
Anyway. The X1 is being developed in Research Triangle Park, North Carolina, U.S |

Yeah sure right as otherwise why is all that anyone will show is the 9 panels and there views you get by selecting it via the left or right buttons taht appear to need two taps to even doing anything and nothing else duh because there isn't anything else working yet perhaps..
Sorry to disappoint you die hard SE fans but for a device coming in what 8-9 months time my E90 eats it for breakfast unless of course the be all and end all is a Touchscreen.
In the meantime I'll continue using the most powerful Symbian devcie to date that requires far less processor power then WM so the extra 190mhz means nothing. I'll also continue using my 800x352 screen for Web browsing with one of the best browsers available on any mobile devcie and not that PIE POS, and looking at Web sites in thier full glory and when relaxing watching my full screen Movies and TV shows all in MP4 h.264 and you know what I'll do it now not some time way off in the future either. So while you dream and wait for your killer devcie I'll just enjoy mine now and await the future improvements Nokia make over the 8-9 months.

What could be exclusive from the Xperia X1?HTC already has all this technology out there (i.e. TyTII)
To me there is nothing new apart from the panels concept. so i think HTC made the whole thing.
Think about it. If had been a little more involved than designing the panels and maybe the housing, they would at least have pushed the X1 to have M2 and fastport support. Think of all accesories they could have sold.As i said, to me, they did not have control at all over the HW except for maybe the housing.
i hope the P5 really surprises me.

Concerning the rumor as HTC as manufaturer of X1, back in 2007 EMP introduced their new platform U370 (will hit the market the second half of 2008), which is the first EMP platform to support multipple OS:es like Windows and Linux.
http://www.ericsson.com/solut[....]newsarchive/2007/issue_1.shtml
In August 2007 EMP sings a contract with HTC as provider of 3G platform for HTC.
http://www.ericsson.com/erics[....]releases/20030618-908277.shtml
So, the idea that HTC assembles the X1 for SE is not that distant I believe (designed by SE, made by HTC).

I can't believe SE had limited input in regard to the specs/design on the X1. I mean, it's ridiculous to think SE went to HTC and said, "Hey we have this idea for a phone..." to which HTC said, "Say no more," disappeared, and a few months later had a working prototype.
What is more likely is that SE went to HTC with explicit instructions, designs, and expectations, after which HTC built the phone to SE's specifications.
The brawn may be have been HTC, but the brains were SE.
That being said, I too am looking forward to the P5i because I believe it will be an even better product.

Dogmann,
First of all, a small welcome and a big farewell for when you'll be leaving... again.
What's better about E90 than X1? Oh, and just so you know. It's not SE's fault the device won't come out soon. It's Microsoft's fault, and it all depends on when they'll announce the OS. Which was also why didn't state Q3 / Q4, but instead did a "2nd half 2008" statement.
