Android is more of an iPhone and Symbian(more iPhone though) competitor. Most of the WM users will stick to WM imo. WM makes business oriented things just so easy when compared to any other platform.

The Touch Pro is now shipping, snapping up potential X1 customers as we speak - http://www.devicewire.co.uk/htc-touch-pro

Limited stock, but it's definitely out there.

Say what you like about HTC, but when they announce a product, they actually deliver it...

Hey Boinng,

You planning on jumping to the Pro? I've decided to skip the iPhone this time round, too expensive(as expensive as the Pro almost) and too may issues .

I'm *still* conflicted about it really. I pretty much made my mind up to go with the Iphone, after playing with it some more - it really is a fantastic device, and I'm confident it's going to get better with ongoing updates etc, especially with the spotlight it's under - but I'm still going to miss some of those humdrum, boring, but oh-so-useful features...

The Pro looks like a good update to the Kaiser, but isn't going to give me the same buzz I don't think. It's more of the same, just better (hopefully at least).

I have until October to decide anyway. I'll be interested to read the hands-on reviews and user feedback on the Pro. If they're really positive (eg the old complaints about video and graphics on the kaiser are gone), and if Vodafone offer me a good deal on one once they get my cancellation letter, I might still go for the Pro - otherwise I'll be signing up with Apple (and keeping the Tytn II as a backup workhorse).

To Raiderski If you read my posts you will realise what I mean,
Its ok if you jumped to an incorrect conclusion, I wont hold it against you.
I know this is off topic abit, But the upcoming Pandora handheld game console will use the new OMAP 3530 platform which we spoke briefly about, And boy oh boy remebr you heard it here first (hehe) This is going to have huge huge potential PS3, XBOX graphics (opengl es2.0) on a handheld,
BTW its out this month!!!!

Actually you can already download the user manual of the HTC touch pro here..
http://www.htc.com/www/FAQ_Detail.aspx?p_id=140&act=faq&cat=268 . I'm only disappointed with its screen size because its only like I'm using my P990i. Hopefully the flagship phone of the X1 will be a surprise..

Xperia X1's screen is not normal size for standard wm applications, which means that there is going to be some problems. So it's a good thing in a way that TP has that size of a screen. What in the world you mean with flagship of the x1??? To me "flagship" means only marketing nonsense when trying to get some device in a good light. I have the feeling you are trying to use it as a word "final". sorry if i am wrong..

@rakdoll
Yes that is what i meant the final product. I know X1 doesn't have a normal screen that's why i said when they release the flagship phone of X1, i hope there will be a surprise. I'm just telling that the Touch Pro is only 2.8" screen size compare to X1 with 3" and i'm not talking about the applications that will work with this phone for the moment.

I must be bad in english, but I really think flagship does not mean anything near "final product". Flagship means the most advanced/best of all of it's line of similar products, from the same manufacturer.

Flagship is as Rakdoll says, the most advanced product the company has to offer is the flagship product. The X1 is not SE's flagship model. That I suppose will be taken by the C905

Actually, C905 is the flagship of the Cybershot cameraphones. X1 is the flagship of the Xperia line (and the only Xperia so far). And W980 is the flagship Walkman phones. So there can be several flagships, actually.
But if you want to define only one product from SE as it's "show-off-do-it-all" device (kind of pointless to do so), it would be the X1. The Xperia line is considered SE's premium brand--even though there are features in the other SE flagships, that outshine similar features in the X1.

The X1 is not an SE flagship. It would be stupid on their part to call the X1 "their" flagship or for us to refer to it as an "SE" flagship. The X1 is not considered a true SE by most. Just like the O2 phones of yester-year the Atom etc. and the HPs and imates were always considered HTC, the X1 is no different.

But you do have a point, the C905 is the Cybershot flagship.

BTW WhyBe when you planning on buying your Touch Pro?

can I have rights to be not so much excited about Android as you are? XBOX and PS3 in handheld? if I have 8MP cameraphone does this mean that i have Canon EOS 350D in phone? I don't care about Pandora but I wish them a lot of developers attention, even the best hardware means nothing without good software

I'm still of the belief X1 is an SE designed phone (HTC is ODM). This is the same as SE using other ODMs for their other devices. Using HTC saves on WM R&D for SE, it does not make it an HTC phone (well...partly so it is ). aksd, You're in geekland splitting hairs The average public will see the X1 as an SE phone.

BTW WhyBe when you planning on buying your Touch Pro?

I've put in my pre-order for the X1 at expansys. Has anyone purchased from them before? Do I have to look out for something sneaky ?

TouchPro??? ....... baaaah!!
Not sexy enough for me
