WM is a good OS underneath, with good support for just about every mobile feature you can think of, and a lot of dedication and respect from the enterprise/business world. It needs a lick of paint, which is what the likes of HTC and now SE have been trying to do for a year or two, but it needs Microsoft to do it properly, and I think that's what we'll see in WM7 - all the functionality they've been building up for years, coupled with a UI to rival the Iphone.
I doubt we'll see WM7 on the X1 - that's just not SE's style - but it should make the next round of WM phones something to really lust after.

Pardon my ignorance, but why is it so important? Specifically on the phone.

XPERIA PANELS OPENING for ALL Windows Mobile devices.
I heard an interesting hint of the future at the CTIA Wireless trade show today. During a presentation on the new Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 smart phone, Sony Ericsson senior manager for application and product planning Ramanath Bhat didn't rule out opening up Sony Ericsson's new "panel" user interface to other Windows Mobile gadgets, which would be a big step forward for Windows Mobile.

Called in Carphone Warehouse on the way home from work, tonight.
I just asked if they heard any solid date for X1 stock, and was told 1st week in October, but they seem to think Orange will have exclusivity for the first month or so.
Anyone here (UK) know anything about that?
I really need to stay with 02, cos a) the reception is best of all the networks where i work (Cheshire), and b) I have 02 broadband, and get a discount for being an 02 phone customer.
Please someone, say it aint Orange exclusive!

Jabe,
3d HW acceleration is used for games, video playback/recording ,its UI and almost everything you visually see in the phone.
It gives better performance, especially in games and videos.
Btw,
wm7 will definitely have a great UI. which will likely be released in 2nd half of 2009. |

I think hw acceleration is also used for the navigation software. It comes to my mind that the older HTCs missed some video drivers and therefore performed bad on navigation. |

VODAFONE havea date of 5th of OCt for this phone and expansys.com have a preorder option sim free so i don't think it is an orande exclusive.
