Details about availability of Sony Ericsson's first smartphone running on Windows Mobile, the X1, surfaced. Furthermore the price of the Xperia with its unique slide-mechanism became public.
The announcement of the Xperia X1 took place in Barcelona earlier this year. And stunned we were when the guys from Sony Ericsson introduced a smartphone based on Windows Mobile!
Today we came across the Xperia X1 in a well-known Dutch webshop. The site tells us that the Xperia X1 is to be expected in August for a retail price of around 750 euros. That's a lot! Especially when competitors such as the E-ten Glofiish M810 and HTC Touch Diamond cost around 300 euros less! On the other hand, Sony Ericsson throws in a high-end Windows Mobile 6.1 smartphone with a unique slider mechanism and a gigantic WVGA screen of 800 x 480 pixels!
New colors
Besides the color black, not long ago some pictures of a new color surfaced. This new color (silver grey) looks good on the X1, doesn't it?
