just asking for opinions. should i buy the X1 instead of a netbook? mainly be used for entertainment and some document editing. a couple of pages ain't that hard on the X1 keybord right? also can it read usb flash drives with some kind of adapter?
p.s. me too, i always need to sign in even i ticked the "remember me" box
I think you are on the right track. The Xperia is a laptop in a pocket.
Entertain yourself Watching your videos and movies, listen to your music, carry your photo album, Play games
And when you get serious, pull out the keyboard and send and receive Email, write some letters with WORD, keep your info with EXCEL
Organize your life with a Calendar, Phone Book and Notes
And as a bonus the GPS will take you where you are going. The Internet wil keep you inform, Google knows anything you want to know.
Plus you can take pictures, record videos and call your friends and tell them what a wonderful hand computer you have.
YES the Xperia is for you.
.
The Big and well speced keys will make your typing easier han those number keypads.
Yes I believe I saw somewhere and adapter. However you can buy a usb drive that uses microSD. You get the best of both worlds in one shot. Because you can have multiple microSD's in one USB drive and you can move stuff back and forth from your Xperia to any computer instantly.

Netbooks are far cheaper than X1 itself!  how dare you comparing them!!!  BTW Take note that X1 is still a pocket PC not a full fledged PC just like what netbooks like Eee or Inspiron mini or Acer one are. and Netbooks (with the exception of Eee PCs) have far more comfortable keys as well. Netbooks are far more powerful in terms of processing and also you can plug almost everything on netbooks using standard USB.
Hi razec. You are PERFECTLY RIGHT. If that is for you. But other people want what is perfectly for them.
Let me dare to help someone with my opinon again.
I listen carefully what Athrunmoon apparently wants: a phone with some entertaiment and some light document editing. And his choices are Xperia X1 or Laptop.
The cheapest laptop won't do it. No phone, too much power for his documents needs and less convenient portable entertainment plus is a little heavier and hard to keep it in his pocket shirt.
His other choice, Xperia, can give all athat with some pluses.
He didn't mention price as one of his conditions. All of us here pay a little more for the convience of a mobile. However let's check the cost:
Very Cheap laptop $400
Cheap Camera with decent video recording $100
Cheap phone $50
Cheap GPS $200
Cheap MP3 player $50
Cheap Palm PDA $100
A bag to carry all that stuff $25
Weight several pounds
TOTAL $925 plus all the inconveniences
Xperia unlocked about $925 with all the conviniences
Weight 150 gm
Xperia branded in Europe from $0 to $500
in USA $300-$500
@athrunmoon,
So, athrunmoon, between the Laptop and Xperia according to your needs. I [B]dare[B/] to recommend you the Xperia. If you give more wants and needs I can better help you to choose.

How much is an Xperia made out plastic, without keyboard, no UMTS, low resolution, 1.3 mp camera, no front camera, a lot other stuff missing?

one of swedens biggest tech-magazins gave Xperia quite bad judgements
it was to slow, (it react slow when you used the screen features).......and to many bugs.
the only thing they said was really good was the keyboard, screen & buildquality
i tried for quite long time some days ago...it was slow, but it was really cool to use screen anyway.

Do the X1 support Sim Access Profile? Otherwise it's no good in my car with my HF kit installed.
(My current Tytn II support that...)
Hi skruttet,
Pardon my ignorance about what exactly is SIM Access Profile. My son has a kit in his car, and your question created my interest. I looked at the specs and they say that it supports any Device with 1.1 bluetooth and any one of the profiles of the Xperia Bluetooth.
Doesn't that mean that the HF kit is the one that needs to be comparable with the Xperia?

Just watched the latest episode of knight rider:
I think the extra photo of "Torres" was superimposed.
Already discussed a few pages ago..
And it's seems to be a video they have made to make it look like someone is calling. You can see on the picture that they are in "Photos and videos".
Hehe..
I have got youtube to work.. but not so good. I get a really bad framerate.. about 1-2 fps at most. Anyone else tested to install all the codecs and players explained in this site and got it to work flawless?

Haha.. Just run a bandwidh-test when surfing via HSDPA! 1,98mbit download speed.
(about 0,35mbit upload)
By the way.. I feel a bit alone in here..

Hi skruttet,
Revisiting your post once more, because I came across with reliable info that might be important for you. It is so positive that I believe that if any device (Nokia) can do it the Xperia will have no problems.
From Bengal Boy forum: Posts 377 and 386
Perhaps yuo may want to place the Question there.
Bengal Boy: ..."As for the Car start question,,, my X1i bluetooth profile menu is the most complete I've ever seen on a Windows Mobile Device. Thank you Sony Ericsson for putting your bluetooth stack on the S.E.X1!! Super Sexy!!"...
QUESTION: 1. I have hbh ds980. I want to know whether you can control your tracks in media panel with bluetooth stereo. And can you use voice command in the media panel.
[B\\]Bengal Boy:[/B] "1. Yes, you can control tracks with a bluetooth headset when using the S.E.X1's media panel which is a "Media Player" application of Sony Ericsson's design. Check the photo of the S.E.X1's bluetooth profile's supported I posted.
[Picture of Xperia screen Bluetooth stack, similar to the one on the Xperia White paper specs]
This is SE's on bluetooth stack used on the device and it makes the X1i the most bluetooth friendly and best performing Windows Mobile Device I've used. Range with the Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR (Extended Data Rate) stack and a SE headset such as the DS-980 or 435a results in extended range and high voice quality.
Performance with MicroSofts Voice Command 1.6 for Mobile Professional devices is superb with voice dialing from a headset working flawlessly.
Bluetooth performance on a S.E.X1 will be the best available with current technology. "...
Perhaps this help...
