Do you have to have the device in landscape with keyboard extended to compose text, write email surf the web,
OR
Can you surf & write etc on the touch screen in candybar mode?
Has anybody here actually used this thing yet? If so what are your impressions?

of course you can enter text in the candy-bar mode (handwriting... virtual keypad...)
and to the 2nd question..... you may find your answer in www.youtube.com |

I'm loving this phone so much despite the fact that it is windows mobile, I wish it was uiq. If it turns out to be stable I'll definitely overlook that it is WM.
It's not what you do or even how you do it but in what state of mind you do it: Dups! 2009 |

UIQ3 doesn't seem to be stable on my M600 (with the latest and last fw), maybe UIQ3.3 will be... so I'll definitely choose WM and the X1 if it'll come out. And yes, WM has a lot more third party software and games available than UIQ and yes, you can do all the things with your WM phone as you would do with "normal" phones. |

What's dissapointing in the Xperia presentations is the orientation delay from switching between portrait and landscape. Design wise I prefer an Xperia that slides Vertically with P1i keyboard like paris |

From the look of the "hands on" reviews on YouTube looks to me like HTC are a long way from having a fully finished and working X1 so by the time have finished mucking around with it my guess is 2009 launch date!
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot. |

Infact the demonstrator seemed nervous everytime she slid the keys and change the orientation because the device never respond immediately. |

I have used one at Mobile Asia 2008 Expo...
X1 looks just like it looks in so many live pictures on the net... But in real it's really really compact, thickness wise ok, but heavy... The display size ok but not big.... The screen resolution was just GREAT/AWESOME!!!!!!! Even the brightness, contrast and visibilty were so good that 65k was not making much of a difference... Couldn't check the Xperia thing, first time I didn't knew how to activat it and the second time it was deleted from the phone...
The D-Pad can be used in two ways... First, just like a normal D-Pad... Second, by sliding finger in different directions on the D-Pad...
When I used it, well it was just like any other mobile windows phone, and at its current state, it was too damn slow and just kept getting hanged, hanged and hanged no matter what I did... So I just couldn't use it much... It has stereo speakers but the volume was only average... The keyboard could have been better if it's keys were coming out a bit...

Hi all
Just stumbled across this on my travels thought you may find it of interest looks good bar the panels and video playback which have still to be seen working in full.

Do you mean as a free memory card included in the box? as i really don't see that happening to be honest and would be amazed if it did.
As after all not everyone may want or need that much storage and whilst 8GB card are now relatively cheap approx £35 or less i would imagine the 16GB when first released will be at a premium as they always are. Also hopefully the X1 will launch before they are even released.

Damn the X1 looks hot!!!
Love SE and their use of brushed metal, unlike other brands that use the cheapest plastics possible even on their high end phones. coughnokiacohogh.
I was afraid there for a second that SEX1 would use plastic for its casing. |
