Windows Phone Thoughts: MoDaCo Reviews The Xperia X1

"Sony Ericsson releasing a Windows Mobile device. Who'd have thought it? That said, Palm releasing a Windows Mobile device, who'd have thought it? Nokia rele - oh, wait, we haven't had that one yet have we... All joking aside, the mobile world positively rocked in February 2008 when Sony Ericsson announced the Xperia X1 at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona... it's clear that the X1 is an important release for the company."

I had the opportunity to hold a prerelease X1 a few months back, and I have to say, I was extremely impressed by the form factor and the "solid" feel of the device. The "tall and narrow" design makes it very nice to hold as a phone. My biggest concern was the keyboard, which was supposed to be tweaked for final release, and it seems that Paul is happy with the latest iteration. Hit the link above for the rest of his thoughts.
