I know this has already been mentioned on other blogs, posts and the SE Developer forums, however, this is the first time I've seen the whole article confirming the upgrade to 2.1;

that is an interesting read. I've been saying that same thing....with UX the version of Android in use is not as nearly important as it would have been had the x10 been a generic android device. With that said, I'm glad its upgradeable, because at the price premium they will offer it at, SE has to deliver a banger. |

I find it very odd that people are claiming the Android V2.0 OS issue is nothing!
There are some key areas that V2 addresses and for people who have to use their phone for business as well as privately it will make a good deal of difference. Seems that perhaps some people are making wild statements without knowing or researching the facts OR perhaps they have done their research but feel the need to shield  ?

Did YOU do your research? Do you realize that a lot of features in 2.0 have already been incorporated into the X10's FW?
In any case, Sumit's post should shut all the haters up for good. For a while at least.
On a sidenote, I love hypocrites. they talk as if the X10 would be an unusable phone because it is numerically behind the latest OS release. At the same time, they sing songs about HTC products that sport the SAME version of the OS (Because HTC is godawesome and can do no wrong, yes? ) or worse yet, products from rival manufacturers that offer even LESS functionality.
Android, at even v.2.1 isn't anywhere as functional as I like. Call me old fashioned, but I find Symbian and WinMo more functional that anything else in the market. But that said, the X10 is a damn good phone and calling it outdated just because it lacks a "2.1" in the whitepaper is foolhardy at best.

I think there are strong reasons to want an upgrade to 2.x, but more than anything - as others have pointed out - it's important if only to the perception of the phone. Every single review or article on this phone I've seen so far mentions the "negative" of it only having 1.6 - and it's the sort of detail that is likely to matter to the target audience of a device like this.
It's also going to be an important test of SE as a credible smartphone manufacturer. Smartphone consumers expect regular software updates these days - they want their devices kept up to date - and SE have an extremely poor record on that historically. There are encouraging signs now with the X2 - they've actually published plans for two big updates to that phone this year - but as with everything, the proof will be in the eating.

yes but what about beyond 2.1 - the trouble is I dont trust SE to produce any further updates beyond what they have already promised and to be fair it isnt in their best interest to keep on updating their existing phones rather than concentrating on (what will be) newer models. However the nexus one is likely to get the latest android updates first and foremost for the time being at least. Thats why I'm torn between the X10 and the nexus one.

Please, go buy the NexusOne and forever hold your peace.
Google Experience devices get the updates first. This is something that was made clear ever since the early days of Android. If it took you this long to figure it out, I feel sorry for ya. |

Too funny man.
What is wrong with SonyEricsson why won't they stop with the extending release dates for the phone so that people can start to buy it. What is wrong with them over there. They are stupid, causing me to curse bad words, cho backside.
DWL dead wid laff
ROFL

In other words
so boss, do you want them to release it before it is ready, only for you to complain about it not working properly

Glad to official confirmation of the OS Upgrade.
CPW e-mail today confirms X10 expected March, although Vivaz =February?!? Maybe those who said date is due to OS are right?
Really looking forward to this phone...

@DentyCracker
Thanks for the translation, I was wondering what in the world was echo.shane's complaint all about. It was funny too!
It's not what you do or even how you do it but in what state of mind you do it: Dups! 2009 |

You seem ever so angry?
This is an un-released phone we are discussing not a child's beauty
Thanks but I did do my research
As for "Sumit's post" I must have missed that one, but from your description it must have been a very powerful message a bit like the ten commandments perhaps, it certainly seems to have left its mark with you.
As for side notes as I have not made any such claims, other than I feel the HTC X1 was a pile of doggy do! I will assume you meant them for others not me, but I have to say I find S60v5 excellent as well, UIQ3 was my preferred variant but we all know what happened there don't we!
I have owned the ... T68i T610, P800, P900, P910, P990, W950, P1, W960 But SE have now totally lost the plot. |
