Sony Ericsson Xperia X1

Posted by roger andre

Phones are not my usual choice of bloging material but this phone really did impress me! The superb webpage video episode layout does a good job to show you what's possible with windows mobile when it has a nicely crafted shell layed over the top of it. Normally, windows mobile looks shaby and basic to my eyes, but as you'll see in this sony ericsson video, anything really is possible.

Anything is possible a long as it works. To be fair, having used S60s iPhones and Windows Mobile 6.1, I'll never get another Windows Mobile 6.1 phone ever...!

I used a Samsung Omnia and a O2 Mini XDA II, and frankly, I don't see any real compelling reason to use these to blog. The Xperia may have a nifty keyboard but that's as good as it gets for Twittering.

Forgive me, I thought writing a blog is really about typing in a journal length piece but if you feel that a blog consist of just a para or two, then a journal would be like War and Peace. That said, I don't think if Tolstoy was alive now would he consider the Xperia to write his next masterpiece.

Fair comment 1000216987 it was short and sweet but hey, That's just the way it had to be at the time. I found the link to the video on Paul Thurrotts super site for windows and got kind of excited about what I saw and couldn't wait to tell people.
