I use my device primarily for work email and as a phone. I use touchscreen devices only, once you get use to it you will be typing just as fast as a hardware qwerty. Both htc hd2 and iphone are excellent in my experience.
Well, that's again what you prefer.. To write long emails, manage documents etc., i could not imagine that i would be tapping a flat screen fast enought. With a full hw-qwerty keyboard, things is completely different..
As for profiles, winmo has basic settings but there is an automatic profile that turns to silent during meetings.
Sounds promisint!  Where do i find this?
Also, never buy a winmo device with less than 1ghz processor and plenty of RAM!
Sadly, here we have again the problem with more or less everything microsoft produces.. Always get the best hardware available.. This is in my opinion again complete madness..

I have my X2 connected to our office Exchangeservers and therefore have an extra security password on startup in addition to the PIN code. When starting up the phone on battery only (99% of the cases) it idles during the orange windwos screen and never reaches the PIN/Security code screen! (It goes completely to sleep in the middle of the boot process) This means that if I do not tap the screen every five seconds for 2 minutes the phone never starts - and if i tap where the keyboard later will appear it remote wipes 
What settings should i change to guarantee the phone to start without my continous interaction - this is driving me crazy!

i found the x2 annoying is when the ringing sound is not loud enough.. and can't change the msg sound.. sorry i'm new to winmo so if i'm wrong about something please correct me as i'm learning how to use.. and so far so good.. only thing i found not very stable is the wifi when turning it off and on can crash the OS.. |

I wanted to share that we have posted an X2 application update on the regular Sony Ericsson Update site at http://www.sonyericsson.com/update – this is not the full MR1 software release I mentioned in a previous post but a .cab file that will add stability and improved performance throughout the device. The .cab provides updates to many applications inside X2, several are behind the scenes but make sure to check out the new and improved four-tab dialer.

Has anyone figured out how to get the accelerometer to work with software/games that will work on other WinMo 6.5 devices?
The fact that I can only use SE games with this feature is BLOODY STUPID! WTF SE? What crack smoking idiot made that decision at SE? Fix it! SE advertised "Motion Gaming" as a feature, but I don't see any fine print saying that it will only work SE branded games.

I will test that out, but first I need to go though the whole X2 to see what i might need to backup.. Especially i want to save logs that the "On The Road Panel" saves on the device itself..
Also saving my sms:es is something i need to do. Luckily i have found a great app for doing this: SMSImport (Link text..., or if you read this frum with a mobile browser: Link text...)
So, most likely i will install the update tomorrow..

My advice is to backup by using amazing
PIM Backup application:
backup contacts, calendar, tasks and all the messages
(sms, mail)
and also all the custom folders.
The other good software is SKTools
or SpB backup.........

If anyone wondering what's in the recent update for x2 please read the following
This new software is a healthy step forward – not only does it bring performance and stability improvements throughout the device but it also introduces several new features as well.
Here’s a list of highlights:
- MR1 is built on a new core platform release from Microsoft including a newer version of IE6
- Stability improvements are everywhere with focus on SlideView, Panel manager and TileWave
- Performance improvements focused on rotation and touch performance, the camera, web browsing, the software keyboard and audio streaming
- New features are added like FM radio, Video calling, Auto-lock and Fast GPS which allows for a faster first fix to the GPS signal
- SlideView 2.0 gives better usability throughout with a fresh design; and new actions are build in like new/reply/delete/edit capabilities in messaging and calendar. Music scrolling/searching and the mini-player have also been enhanced
- The new dialer took a big step forward with four easy buttons giving easy access to the dial-pad, favorites, call activity and contacts. We increased the target hit area in contacts for finger friendliness and added user friendly redial functionality
- Based on feedback from you, we really worked hard on the software keyboard (XT9) by improving speed and touch responsiveness
