Well I had my X1 for over 2 weeks and I am utterly impressed, I got touchflo 3d working flawless no glitches, and the keyboard is brillant, I can type like lightning on the thing and when i look at the long paragraphs not one mistake hehehe, I am still getting the next gen mid 2009 but will keep the X1 till then, its a beauty, and one thing I love on it I can watch my videos with a2dp and the videos dont judder just run smoothly, which was my concern b4 purchasing this, A+ the build is pure quality, Whybe you was correct, even the small light on the power button ( I bet nobody noticed that lol) leave usb plug in and take battery out =battery fail light
only thing to get now is the invisibleshield for it, |

as for me, I want/like phone that feel like a phone. When I hold it, it feels like ordinary phone, but it is a powerhorse and you can do everything with it.
I like a small formfactor so that I won't feel that I'm carrying a scientific calculator in my pocket.

I'm still not convinced there will be an X1a because...
The current X1 is X1 and not X1i
The X1 is shown on the US and Australian SE product pages as X1
The X1 has 850/1900 mhz frequencies available to choose
I've read a few reports that these frequencies work fine
hence, no real need for an X1a
I've noticed that too! However there are few ppl in the USA having X1's and not getting 850Mhz 3G connections in states like NY where 850Mhz is exclusively used. I'm wondering if the ROM its set to 850Mhz and yet the hardware isn't capable of it??

To sync with Lotus Notes, I highly recommend Commontime mNotes. There is a 30-day free trial available at http://www.commontime.com.
One word of advice - read the installation instructions carefully, and follow it exactly.
I'm using mNotes Desktop right now and it is very smooth and seamless.
Interesting. You may be the odd man out on this particular situation. I've noticed you mentioned desktop sync - so I'm guessing your work uses RSA HardToken Code for iNotes, right?

This is probably going to be a really stupid question, but when you plug the wall charger into the phone, is it supposed to charge automatically? Because when I plug it in, nothing happens. I've either missed something REALLY simple, or I have a faulty charger, because I can charge the phone fine through the computer...... |

it will charge automatically. you should see the LED blinking (a mix colour) to indicate that it is charging. |

Good to see SE seem to have gotten this one mostly right. How's the video/multimedia performance on the X1? I had a Tytn II previously and it was, famously, very poor for video or anything like that. Now I have an Iphone and it's a complete contrast - brilliant video and graphics, but with a little less of WM's general utility (although the Appstore makes up for a great deal of that). Anyway, I'm sure the X1 is a big improvement on the old Tytn II, but is up to or exceeding Iphone levels for video and gaming?

Thanks Humble, Very reasuring.
I'm waiting for the X1a announcement and/or AT&T carrier before making my final decision of which version I'll have.
I never doubt about getting this phone because my logic is: If it works well for someone that means the people complaining are doing something wrong.

That is some great news. It seems we have a solid release date and price now. I wonder if at&t will pick it up and subsidize it though. |

Hi,
I'm really sorry if this has been discussed before, but I'm hoping someone might be able to give me some advice on how to get some decent quality video playback on the X1.
I have a series of videos that when watched on my laptop are very good quality. I have tried converting these to all sorts of formats, WMV, MP4, FLV, 3GP, etc but anything in WMV format seems to barely play on either Media Player or Coreplayer, and anything else just seems rubbish quality.
Even when watching the converted videos on my laptop they are good quality, and thats on a much much larger screen, so it can't be my conversion software.
Does anyone have any ideas or software they use to convert videos for good quality, speedy playback on the X1? The one key thing I need is the ability to trim the videos (i.e in my existing converter I can set the start and end points if I don't want to convert the whole video).
Any help would be great! |
