@Santa_Claus
Great news, thanks. I'll take your word for it.
Does anyone know if the white version will be available at the same time as the black, or will it be an operator exclusive.

Both versions will be available at the same time.
About Android 2.0, got that info today... don't take it for granted, but AFAIK SE works to update the OS...

That is good to hear!
Is SE going to add more features to X10 like 720p hd recording and playback, FM-radio and transmitter, Digital Compass and a 16 million colors screen? Please tell me yes. These, plus few more features, are what X10 needs to stay in competition and relevant in the cell phone market for months. |

At rss, you can playback 720p videos on the X10 using a 3rd party player.It has a digital compass and about the colors, we will see. The only thing missing is 720p video recording, which is needless given that it records in WVGA and anything more would mean a guzzle of limited battery. |

The competition nowadays is very tight in which almost every company can have high tech hardware that the others have. Since SE is struggling selling phones in time owing to recession and lack of innovation, making phones that has an X-appeal and that remain popular and functional like "Iphone" for quite some time is the way to go.
The X10 can be easily be over shadowed by to be released phones. For example, 4th generation Iphone. Although no one at the moment can exactly tell the the 4G's specification, we all know and we can't deny that is going to sell like hotcakes. Also, Motorola is flooding different countries with specific android devices that are really high tech like the model to be released in Korea which supports HD recording and HDMI-out connection!
It also faces stiff competition with Droid and Nexus One. X10 is not really that advanced compared to these two. The Droid has keyboard with d-pad, has the same screen as X10 but has 5 megapixel camera and a quite slower processor. The Nexus One uses an AMOLED screen instead of TFT, has the same processor as X10 but double the RAM and same camera as Droid. The only features that X10 exceeds at from Droid and Nexus One are the camera and video recording.
I strongly believe that having those features on X10 that I mentioned on my post will make it shine despite of variety of Android devices to choose from and the Iphone. X10 has this x-factor which is hard to resist (at least for me) plus a stable OS to back it up. All SE needs to do is to load with features.
To se_dude:
In my posts that contain features wish lists, I included the digital compass twice but no one corrected me that X10 has it. Thank you for telling me. Now, just few more features and I am sold.
About the video recording, X10's processor supports it. Why not add it? It gives X10 more edge.

Te iphone is hardly a bestseller beyond the US market. The X10 is not supposed to do well there.And anyways, it will be out like 4 months before the iphone is. Also, its not double the RAM.It has 256+128 graphics RAM. The camera shall make up for the missing i guess.Also the UI shall differentiate.Given the review from electricpig, they totally love the X10 and say that it is going to be the first great phone of 2010. Now figure. |

^Really? As far as I know, Iphone is selling generally well inspite of its limited availability and steep price outside US.
The electricpig could say that but the fact remains other Android phones, especially the Droid and Nexus One will surely give the X10 run for its money, as well the upcoming Iphone 4G. |

The Nexus One is plagued with bugs. Have a look here. No wonder it isnt selling good.

^X10 will have its share of bugs when release like the Nexus One. And I know whatever the bugs are on Nexus, Google will fix. Besides, it has just been released and has the most latest version of Android. |

Whatever the problem with Nexus One, it is software related and can be fixed by an update.
To tell you frankly, I can't really get what your point is. Everyone wants a stable device but if it does not have much features it is boring. It's like why don't I just buy a notebook.  |

LMAO! A few stupid features? man this is getting better and better.
Being an SE there is no doubt that X10 will have bugs. The NexusOne will be just like the Hero,look how far that phone has come,from being laggy and buggy to getting major OS updates and now being stable,and isnt it getting 2.0 as well? It realy has enjoyd great support,and the NexusOne will be the same.
