XPERIA X1 - first Windows Mobile device by Sony Ericsson

Due to historical reasons, the WM platform has been largely attributed with being a niche solution should we judge on a global scale encompassing the whole telecom market. The sales of WM products remain on a stably low level despite of all Microsoft's efforts to promote WM (which might look a bit strange given the variety of vendors designing WM products).

Nope just business, Sony and Microsoft do NOT hate each other. Just happens that they compete in a market.

Not saying you think this way, just pointing it out for others that do think this way.

Kyur4ThePain6469d ago

Do you think there aren't any Sony TVs at MS?

sonarus6469d ago

This phone will be the greatest phone ever made. Microsoft better get their act together and make sure the software is suitable enough for the awesomness of Xperia. I have been waiting on this phone for almost a yr now:(

Young Puzzle6469d ago

they should do this with a game console.....have sony make the hardware because there the best at that(and no RRoD), and have Microsoft make the software(because live is better as of now than psn).......and nintendo is well last gen lol

devilhunterx6469d ago

PSN will evolve further. Thinking it wont is just plain stupid talk.

Young Puzzle6469d ago

yes it will but as of now live is better.....that is if you dont mind paying 50 dollars a year

devilhunterx6469d ago

for $50, I can haz lots of cheezburgers :P

"PSN will evolve further. Thinking it wont is just plain stupid talk."

And you don't think Live with evolve as well?

PSN is free though so you can't complain.

Ontopic: This is rather funny but nothing new. Sony laptops use XP/Vista so they work together.

Great and all, but I would never buy a WVGA Pocket PC. Yeah, the resolution might be great, but good luck finding software that's compatible (for those who don't know: Software has to support the rez of your device, otherwise it's highly likely it won't work [properly]).
Besides, the X1 is basically a HTC Touch Pro with some slight upgrades and less compatibility (WVGA FTL!).

Doppy6469d ago (Edited 6469d ago )

Release date please. I've been on this phone for almost a year.

cjp4eva6469d ago

Correction! That release date was erroneous. Its supposed to be released week 42 of the year meaning around October 12 +- a week, srr but im too lazy right now to look up links, but i could tell you i've been following this phone closely

Probably down to the high cost of gaming. Controllers and racing wheels can cost as much as consoles.

This is why there will always be competition in gaming. The possibilities to make huge profits is just too enticing.

Pokémon Go Championship Winner Title Revoked for ‘Unsportsmanlike Conduct’

The winner of the Pokémon Go Championship grand finals in Orlando was stripped of their title, allegedly for 'unsportsmanlike conduct' during their victory celebration. The celebration involved the winner removing their headset, standing up, and pumping their fists before shaking hands with their opponent. Many believe the ruling was excessive and that winner's victory celebration was tame compared to celebrations by winners in other competitive games.

How is that unsportsmanlike conduct? What a stupid decision lol

gold_drake34d ago

lol wut.

since when is bumping fists "unsportsmanlike".

Inverno34d ago

There are people that get offended seeing others just enjoying a moment, or enjoying a hobby, or just having fun.

SethNW34d ago

Can someone explain to me what is so problematic with this? I watched video multiple times and all I see dude having bit of celebration. None of his actions felt aggressive or seem like they symbolize anything... Like winning sure deserves bit of celebration like that. I mean who wants to live in the world where you aren't allowed to be excited or have bit of burst of happiness when you win? Like was he supposed to act like emotionless robot? He should be allowed to have bit of his victory "hell yeah" moment, even if it is before shaking hands with opponent. Like it is not like he didn't shake hands or whatnot. And it is not like he is like some super serious government official to have to stick to protocol to a letter. This whole thing is just ridiculous.
