A certain telecom market expert (whose name must not be pronounced in vain by lowly mortals, so we'd rather refrain) then started speculating about HTC's impending death, without even knowing that it was actually the ODM producer bound by contract to develop and issue SE's ambitious PDA. He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named dispersed a good dose of rumor concerning the alleged new leader of the Windows Mobile platform, which made little to no sense. Unfortunately, even the most knowledgeable of telecom experts manage to get the info on time, which on some unlucky occasions leads to misinformation lurking into serious-looking articles; that's just what happened this time as well. The recent article claiming the cancellation of two smartphones in full obedience with the mentioned person's piece of advice was violently refuted by the manufacturing company themselves. Such a reason for pride can only squeeze a bitter smile from Sony Ericsson's officials, for the real fact behind the cancellation of the two products is the massive reorganization taking place within the UIQ group under the guidance of Symbian foundation (rather than a couple of articles on a site). He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named found himself deeply offended which led to degrading remarks targeted at XPERIA X1, which started being depicted as a bleak shadow of HTC Touch PRO unworthy of public attention. Let's have a more sober look at the products, pushing aside all of the emotion.


Any Idea who this person may be??

So it would seem 'he-who-shall-not-be-named' is not as impartial as he would like us to believe.

A shame really, unbiased reviews are what we really want to read when considering a new phone, not spin and scorn.
