Awesome!
Considering for next cellphone... but those buttons and the glossy overall design could be replaced...
Those alone won't stop me from getting the phone though. #sonyericssonxperiax10
"The X10 will make your Droid feel inadequate in February."
Yeah, sure. If you're a fan of fluffy Cloud 9 glass shards flying through heaven's serene yet sterile landscape. In which case....um, why'd you buy the Droid?
I suppose the Snapdragon would be attractive. Assuming they don't underclock it. Those bastards. #xperiax10
@OCEntertainment: Also, I have a feeling X10 owners would happily trade 20% CPU clock freq. for multi-touch and non-Sony-ified compatibility problems that I'm sure it comes with. #xperiax10
@valkilmerisawful: For my part, I have yet to hear one compelling argument in favor of "multitouch" as a feature. Pinch-zooming I can live without. In fact, I prefer tapping an icon. Or, in the new version, double-tapping. Which sounds way more dangerous and less unintentionally sensual then "multitouch". Besides that, I haven't heard of any convincing implementations of multitouch to make it worth any speed decrease.
I can think of one that I've seen that would be cool....but no one else has said it yet. ;-) #xperiax10
@OCEntertainment: I see your point there. I suppose multitouch is just a fancy-pants, and possibly overdone way to do the same thing. I also think this phone is exceedingly badass, or I will as soon as they post a real-time video of it not running like a steaming pile. I have a BB, so I have a zero-touch and was just temporarily twitterpated by the black magic that is multi-touch-ness. #xperiax10
^That's the kind of thing you just can't do with a single-input system. It's mostly useless, except in certain rare circumstances. Nonetheless, it is incredibly cool. In short: it exemplifies everything multitouch is right now.
Why no one else can point this out is beyond me. #xperiax10
@namforellik: I never heard anything about moisture damage. You do blow into it, though, yeah.
Frankly, though, if you can't control the saliva in your mouth, maybe a busted iPhone is just the wake-up call you need to close that lower jaw. #xperiax10
@OCEntertainment: The most compelling reason for multitouch for me (besides the rock lobster AWESOMENESS that is the ocarina app) is the ability for soft keyboards to register two points at once. I can't tell you how many times I've not let up one finger just enough so that I can't type the next letter on my G1.
Other than that, and controls in games, there isn't much. #xperiax10
@Sandeep Murali: Indeed. I wonder if you've ever used a Sony product, before you embarrass yourself. My camera is pretty awesome, it's the size of a credit card and as thinner than my blackberry. However, I have NO choice but to remove my battery to charge it on the wall, and memory stick pro duo is not exactly widely accepted, so I have to carry an adapter with me everywhere I go.
SO, based on your extensive experience with the X10 (within all reasonable probability is as close to zero as we can get), I am comfortable with my level of embarrassment, which is about as close to zero as you are. If you agree, please state "I honestly believe that I would trade my house and home to see Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock make another movie together", and sign below. #xperiax10
@valkilmerisawful: No need to get your panties in a twist. this phone uses MicroSD for storage, MicroUSB for charging/ data transfer and an Open Source OS. Now wipe that egg off your face and start learning to do your homework before you throw out internet cliches like the "Oh that Sony and their proprietary tech" rant. #xperiax10
@Sandeep Murali: Poor little guy, you are one of the least funny, least clever commenters I've conversed with in quite a while. You've missed any sarcasm and have brought nothing entertaining to the table. Patton Oswalt would say to you: "Dude, you are gunna miss everything cool and die angry. You stupid douche-nozzle."
You do not have a talent for corresponding with other persons, as demonstrated by your choice of social gestures and colloquialisms, e.g., "panties in a twist", or "wipe that egg off your face" (and while I'm not exactly sure what it means, it sounds dated and unfamiliar). I doubt anyone likes your company. Good day, Sir. #xperiax10

i read almost the whole features list, 90% of it you could get with free apps on iPhone, but the real question is: Whats the WisePilot navigation app? did i miss any rumors? #sonyericssonxperiax10
@medopal: 100% of it you can get as free android apps. Apps stores are good for other things than fart apps and public domain e-books. #sonyericssonxperiax10
After watching that ad I am now convinced I am a beautiful blond woman whose femininity and smarts are represented by my white plastic phone and black plastic glasses respectively.
It turns out that purchasing said phone will get me a hot guy on a Vespa. Score. #sonyericssonxperiax10
I remain unsure of that interface. Especially the contacts list. I like to get through my contacts fast. I'm pretty sure there'd be some kind of search box. But that floating glass violates rule number one of interface design: don't make flash more important than usefulness.
I am happy to see, though, this trend of including large amounts of storage space as included MicroSD cards. Between a phone that has 8GB of onboard memory and a phone with an 8GB removable card, I'm with the card. #sonyericssonxperiax10
"For starters, there's barely any internal memory, though an 8GB MicroSD card is included to remedy that" Why does the website say 1GB Phone Memory + "SanDisk microSD? up to 16GB, 8GB included". Or I'm I reading it wrong? #sonyericssonxperiax10
Sexy. As far as the lagginess goes, still think some of the superfluous eye-candy in Rachel is just distracting.
PCs have had issues with many new Windows and Linux distro releases. Tons of UI eye candy that pushed the limits of the hardware. But in those cases we lingered with the software.
The mobile space is moving more quickly and being treated more disposably. I'm left longing for the software lulls where the hardware had time to catch up and smooth things back out. #sonyericssonxperiax10
So does this mean the November 3rd (today for the east coast giz'ers) is an announcement for something coming everywhere but here at somepoint far enough in the future for me to forget about it? What a drag. #sonyericssonxperiax10
