That's the same as what I got a few days ago and better than the "we have no idea" I got today from O2 (upgrades department).

I guess most people will use a 3rd party player such as coreplayer as people do now with WM devices
as for a Vodafone bug, well they will go branding these things with their own stuff 
Hi Masseur,
Of course I would love to get out the box all the best applications that exist. But is the following analogy valid? On my laptop 90% of my key application came from 3rd party sources. I don't see any different in the mobiles. So what I really care is if the phone is capable and the developers are interested.

...I will make a little wager here to all the Xperia buyers,
Mark this thread
Another prophesy; I can feel it in my waters lol.
Xperia buyers are obviously Tech heads and like aesthetics,
The Xperia You purchase will become outdated in 2-3 months Simple!!
theres a big rumbling in the next gen market, u500 is out q1/2 i can go on
which one for you TEGRA mali200 apx2500 omap3, all of these are powerhouses!!!
Back months ago, when people were complaining about the X1 is taking too long and will be surpassed by better devices, this never happened.
Diamond
TouchPro
Omnia
G1
now Touch HD
as I stated a while ago... all other are still bowing down to the X1. At best, new devices will either match the specs of the X1 or exceed in a feature or two (while being a dissapointment on other features). Technology only allows so much at any particular moment. This whole idea of next gen coming out so soon and changing the game is just a pipe dream ( enjoy your X1's for the time being). Hardware alone isn't going to change anything. There has to be an OS and software support to go with it, and most importantly, the public has to WANT to buy it. Yes, one day the market will be taken over by next-gen devices, but not so soon...not in such a grand, revolutionary way. Those next-gen prototypes DO look amazing, but as of now, there's no substance behind them, just really pretty GUI's.
Thanks WhyBe,
You said so well what I wanted to say. There are too many, moaning, bit**ing, complaining disolution posts around here. I wish life were perfect... but it would be boring.
I'm been involved in technology in general and computers in particular since 1979 and since the apple II when I was runing a computer store I have heard the same stupid question "Instead of buying today, should I wait for the next better model?"... I used to say if you do, you will die before you buy.
That was in an era when changes came every year, and people around here can not wait a few weeks because they fear technology will pass them. What a logic! does it means that if you buy today the Xperia then by xmas is an antique? So what the Touch Pro will be by xmas? Worse!! because they released before.
@humble. Please understand I'm not refering about you. I follow your comments and respect your style. The moaners and complainers know I'm talking about them.

Yes, I read that logic alot within this thread 
It's funny how these devices are "so old" yet nothing has superceded them yet. |

Not so sure Voda are that bad at branding now a days unless they treat WM differently the last Voda handset i had only had a Voda Live Icon and that was it. But i suppose once some one has one we will know for sure and until then can just guess.

@Dogman
Tell that to OMNIA owners. The VODAFONE firmware resulted in lots of bugs that resulted in people sending the phone back on mass. I hope they have learnt a lesson as I will be getting my X1 from them on the basis that they have great signal and I can have the phone for Ģ69.99 on a 12 month contract or FREE on 18 month. The offer was via retentions.

@WhyBe At least you are consistent. This phone got announced in Feb. In March I got lambasted by a few nerds in here when I made the suggestion - We won't see the device till November in 'up market' countries and Christmas everywhere als. And only by next year will it run as advertised (first Q if we are lucky but I doubt that now after SE had to dismiss so many people involved in R&D). Can you point out exactly where this device is so much better then the competition? ‘Read my lips’ once again - If SE don't sort the crap out by Apr. 2009, S60 touch-screen will run circles around it. Not only spec wise but in sales too

Why are you still peddling this? nothing "bows down" to the X1, it's just another version of the same platform found in at least three of the other phones you mentioned above (even the G1 is very similar hardware). If it's the one you prefer, and you can actually get hold of one this year, that's great - but please stop placing it on this silly pedastal and hyping it up, you're only going to disappoint yourself and others.

Just had news from O2. They have told me that the X1 is being delayed further to the week commencing the 20th of October. This is quite a
reliable source as the company I work for spends a lot of money with O2 and we have dedicated Account Executive that we call for upgrades/account queries etc….
Here we go!
