I love the fact that it's going to be very, very affordable But 2mp fixed focus on a full touch device is plain cruel IMO. Not for me but I think it'll be a hit

I can't understand why are the latest SE phones so thick? And isn't the screen just 2.4"? That's too small, and there is so much waste of space. And that Walkman player is worse than Mediascape in both X10 and X10 mini.

The best mobile phone brand died with Sony Ericsson's death. Shame on you Sony for killing it! And, of course, for ruining the Xperia brand...
