AHHH look what I got today from the very same e-store where I bought my phone.
 
 
So it's true that you get a movie with your Xperia X1, afterwards obviously

I've heard two version of story regarding windows mobile, one said that the phone will be significantly faster after a while due to the caching and indexing, and the other version said Windows mobile tends to be slow after long time use once you have more applications.....
I'm confused.... since this will be my first windows mobile phone, I really want to know.
in my experience wm devices are quickest when you dont use any kind of covering software such as spb, panels,touchflow etc. but instead use the native wm homescreen.

There is one thing I don't get!!!

The ATI thing is just a marketing trick.
Those drivers are already in the Diamond/Pro and all the latest HTC phones...
Wihtout these drivers the panels wouldnt even run that good...
And I highly doubt that you can play PS1 games on it good enough...
What the guys meant is that you could run the new games that come out for WM and have "nicer" graphics then the older ones and perhaps some 3d stuff.....
dont get your hope to high! |

Right, well the moment of truth.
Just had a call from Carphone Warehouse to advise they will be receiving stock in the warehouse tomorrow. 18 month contract, 1200 minutes , 1000 texts and unlimited internet - and apparently guaranteed delivery tomorrow.
Well, I shant get my hopes up. I've been told this before. |

strange, I just called CPW twice and both confirmed no chance for guaranteed delivery tomorrow as they're not showing stock, so they can only place a pre-order, and they've been told to tell people it will be within the next week

Hi all,
Just got off the phone with VodaFone retentions also no X1's in stock today but they are expected soon. Apparently it is SE that is failing to deliver them when they say they will that is causing the delays.

@PK
Well maybe not intentional as some users in Sweden got theirs but before shipping appears to of started elsewhere the Networks apparently discovered a bug. Which has resulted SE in stopping shipments whilst they fixed it, now what would of been good would of been a small statement from SE explaining this to all their loyal and waiting users but as usual SE just doesn't do communication well not with it's users anyway.
Which is a shame as no information just makes them look really stupid especially as despite what they announced it is blatantly obvious to all just how incorrect that announcement was. Come on SE grow up and communicate with your users or are you really trying to force them to get fed up and buy a Touch Pro?

I'm not fed up and I am happy to wait, and indeed I did get a HTC touch while waiting. This isn't a life or death situation and I don't need this X1 for any mission critical task. I expect thats the same for most here. Its just a mobile device that we are enthusiastic about, and most of us already have one or more mobile devices while waiting for the next.
while I agree in principal that SE could be more communicative in regards to product availability in more finite terms that simply a quarter of a year, I'm not convinced repeating this plea to SE on here ad nauseam is really going to change anything. If they were going to take notice of us they would have done so along time ago.
Actually, I do think they were trying to communicate when they made the "end of sept" announcement at a time when all the press were saying the X1 was delayed until next year. I guess they won't do that again!
for interest, I did hunt around briefly yesterday for other manufacturers who have announced a delay in official press releases and give exact revised availability dates, but I found none. All i could find was heresay comments from "someone inside Nokia/Samsung/Motorola" or similar.
nah, the X1 will come soon and we'll all be happy again (queue birds whistling in the trees and children laughing in the streets!)

I was only refering to the outer body in my statements. Of course chassis et. al. are metal. On my 300, front/rear bumpers, trim around the bottom, grill and side mirror housings are plastic/polymer (whatever the term).
No worries, that makes sense then, I thought it strange when you said most cars have fibre glass bodies!! (I think of the body as the main shell, and the bumpers etc as ancillery components) btw, I didn't mean to offend or anything

I stand corrected, and its not only SE who don't have a clue
CPW just called me and my silver X1 will be delivered tomorrow
I explained what I was told earlier and he had no idea what they were talking about. We'll see tomorrow I guess
edit: and a further call to CPW now confirms they have a few in stock and mine is definitly allocated now... them birds are agonna starting singing!

PeterKay, do you have any clue of what the new ROM version will bring?
I know there is another one around for selected testers that probably will be implemented in the next firmware update. |
