Youtube video shows that SE really improved speed of the OS. There is no lags. It's sooo important - at least for me. High-end phones shouldn'e have any lags. If X1 works like in the video after few months of usage and with some apps working it will be great phone.
One more thing SE - please make Opera Mobile 9.5 the default browser. As far as I'm concerned now it's not fully integrated. If SE does it, I'll probably buy this beauty  |

Wow !!! This phone is so fast. I'm impressed. ... and spb panel is so cool.
this should be the retail version right ?
why the phone in this youtube is way faster than the one used by magnus anderson ?

Cause magnus was using a prototype
sometimes I don't understand their marketing strategy. Why magnus use prototype to demonstrate the capability of the phone ?... Maybe he thought nobody will pay attention to the lagging issue in his phone. |

That's true. SDRAM is fast enough to share memory for video frame or video data. The real question is why 128MB ? that's huge!!! 16MG or max 32MB is more than enough for the bit map size of the Xperia.
Only part of it is used as the main framebuffer. The rest is used for 3D rendering (Z buffer for depth), doublebuffering etc. The same reason why most PC graphics cards have triple-digit MB of RAM.

Just spoke to O2 UK and they have been advised of a further delay this morning, and now don't even have an approximate date on their system. |

ughh... I don't really understand. What is the problem that causing the delays ? SE ? HTC manufaturing plan ? Mass production problem ? production shortage ? HTC manufacturing quality ? Service Provider ?
Anybody works in HTC production plan ? how many units have been produced ?
Based on my experience working with Sony Design center, we sometimes have problems with third party manfucaturer. Sometimes they can't meet Sony specifications. I don't know about HTC manufacturing capabilities. |

Thing that gets me is why:
Confirmed official launch date for the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1
[Sep 10th 2008] Sony Ericsson has now confirmed the date for the availability of the Xperia X1. It will be initially available in UK, Germany and Sweden on September 30th
Who do they bother with this then not even make another "Confirmed official" announcement that the last one was utter dribble. |

Hi Creid,
Thanks for phone definitions.
Your post brings a lot of memories. I was a game designer for Atari and other computer at that time my company was First Star Software I'm sure you remember since we had a few great hits. Definitely I will focus on the subject. Thanks.
Sorry to be completely off topic (not that sorry really, not interested in the X1!) but really, have to applaud you for Spy vs Spy. What a fantastic game that was! I'd buy it again tomorrow in any format, it was brilliant.
I used to play it on my old Atari 800XL about twenty years ago, and in fact played it so much I wore the floppy disk out! I remember being absolutely gutted when it wouldn't load anymore, and I couldn't find another copy anywhere (this was in the days before the internet, and ebay!)
Well done for having a hand in such a long lost classic!

I've just learned from SE customer support that the X1 has the normal 2 year country-of-purchase warranty (except EU where warranty is EU wide) BUT...
apparantly the X1 comes with what SE call a "travel card" which grants worldwide warranty for the first 12 months!
its the first I have heard of it... has anyone heard of that before? what about the Swedish people here who have received retail units? was that included?

They have it in Carphone Warehouse stores in the UK, just been in and saw........I am of course referring to the dummy handsets lol.
I was surprised how small the keys on the keyboard were. I thought they would be the same size or bigger than those on my P1i. Still, it's a nice looking phone. Slider felt very cheap and 'gritty', but I'm guessing (and hoping!) that's just because it's a dummy model. |
