LMAO, check this Ukrainian 'Pimp My Ride' creation, in the esato photo gallery and taken with a W800i. What's that scoop/taxi-looking thingy above the windscreen? Those yellow mudflaps, and check out the angle of the scoops on the valance. And what's with the 'Dragon Style'? Ooh, that just does it for me, LOL.:

LOL, yeah there's some Impreza colour cues there.

Taken from GSMArena today:

'The Sony Ericsson blog just announced that the XPERIA X10, XPERIA X10 mini and XPERIA X10 mini pro will be upgraded to Android OS 2.1 by the end of this year. What's more, the X10 will get HD video recording just as on the Vivaz. Sweeeet!

All of that is certainly good news for all XPERIA X10 series owners. It makes you wonder why didn't they go straight for Android 2.2 (a.k.a. Froyo) but even minor upgrades are welcome.

Fortunately, the original XPERIA X10 will be granted with a more major update over its mini siblings. The X10 will get HD video recording resembling that of the Symbian-powered Vivaz. Wireless home connectivity via DLNA and improved Timescape/Mediascape duo are also on the way.

Sony Ericsson admits that the Q4 updates are a bit late compared to their rivals, but we are given a promise for extended firmware support for all OS-powered devices in the future.

Adding HD video recording via firmware upgrade is certainly surprising but a similar software update was rumored recently about the HTC Desire as well. So we guess, it might just be some sort of a limitation inherent to Android.'

Just got Voda's May edition booklet. I see SE Vivaz has arrived, at R249 pay-in on Business Call/Talk120/Talk130 realy nice,if all fails il get me that.
SE X10 also here, at R289pm on Business Call (per minute billing though) but WOW that is REALY decent,could it be due to it running Android1.6? I think this is a potential next phone as well if its at that price.
HTC Legend and Desire are also available, but i dont see any contract deals on them.
With the X10 at such a good price it makes me wonder if its worth it to wait for N8? Considering X10 has a huge 4inch 854x480 display, 1500mAh battery, great design and will get Android2.1 which already has tons of apps/mods for it, hmmm the X10 just became very attractive.
Dups,are you sure you dont want the X10? It must be thee best deal on a high-end device by Voda,im gona keep an eye on it.

Great deals indeed on those SEs!

Nah, Tsepz_GP, I am not the least bit enticed by these full touch phones.

I do, however, think the X10 is a lovely phone even if it is getting the OS upgrade late IMO.

SE really know how to screw up!!

They better announce a P1i type of Android cause I am getting tired of waiting. If nothing comes of it by August or September I will give in and get me a full touch phone. The next Meego phone is in pole position for me unless SE or Motorola come up with a great Android touchscreen phone.
It's not what you do or even how you do it but in what state of mind you do it: Dups! 2009

I think MOTOROLA will make what you want,their rumourd devices seem mostly to have keyboards.
Im realy entertaining the thought of owning a X10 lol, sux it wont have multitouch though, NOKIA better hurry up with that N8.
