I received a call from CPW yesterday and I renew my o2 contract with them and they said I should receive my X1 on monday! I saw the black and the silver version yesterday. I must admitted that the silver one looks better but i am going to ge the black one from CPW though. |

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!
NO i know what i ment, The ATI thing maybe a marketing trick, but im confident you can play playstation games on X1. Other PPC with lower specs than x1 can do it check youtube
its called FpseCE |

@MyP010
It was stutterfree in the store while my phone isn't, that is what I meant.
Thanks McKinley....
hmm... that's interesting. Do you have any idea what couse the different and what makes you love this phone when its lagging ?
@NitroFan
I wonder, why most of the video review that've been shown look like there are no lagging except when changing the panel orientation (some of them). ?

Hi Myp910 if your happy with that OK, go spend your hard earned money and enjoy your phone.
But I smell trouble with stuff like this are not going to be giving me my money back or be exchanging it for a Touch Pro IF it turns out this thing is a pile of problems just like my P990 was.
I no longer trust to deliver anything they promise, they even managed to balls up their most important launch in years, with the X1 Product Manager throwing in the infamous RAM issue you simply could not make it up could you!
So I am going to wait a bit, and see if it "does what it says on the tin" first.

Hi all,
Well in a another startling turn of events VodaFone called me and low and behold their stock also just arrived in their WareHouse.
But mine won't be with me until Monday but of course I will report if there is any branding or customisation and if it is locked or not. After which you can expect a full hands on review putting the X1 fully through it's paces.
This will be my first SE device in 28 months a long time to have been away i just hope I'm not disappointed.
Marc

Hi folks,
I've just returned from a shopping trip and asked in The Carphone Warehouse about the X1.
The guy was surprised to see ANOTHER person [me] asking about this phone and was even looking it up on the system as I went in.
He informed me that know one is buying the C905 because of the X1.
He also said that it could be in within a couple of weeks....
...and Play.com have added a new nearer date for release....28th instead of the 31st!

if it's a good phone, maybe i'll upgrade my G900 to X1 (thats sell and buy). Need some sample shots with X1 camera (even if it's a good phone, i expect to have a good camera because i don't have a digicam, so i only use mobile). If it's worse than G900, then it's a no no. Waiting for HTC HD

Well, knew it was too good to be true.
Just called the Carphone Warehouse tracking team to make sure I will be getting it tomorrow. Just been told they don't actually have stock, the order has been entered as a pre-order and that no one will be getting their handsets this weekend.
Went through to Customer Services and was told that they did have stock, but it had only got to the warehouse a few hours ago. He even confirmed that I was down for Saturday delivery, but no handset - what the **** are they planning on delivering....hot air? That's about all Carphone Warehouse seem to be able to provide.
I called someone at 3pm, three hours after I had placed the order, and was told the order was confirmed and that they had it in-stock for tomorrow delivery.
All I'll say is (and I'm sure that you all know this by now), but don't get your hopes up if you've been promised delivery tomorrow from the CPW, cos in my case I was fed a load of **** |
