Sony Ericsson reveals Xperia X10 Android handset

The latest handset maker to pick up Google's Android OS and run with it is Sony Ericsson. The company has unveiled its Xperia X10 smartphone, the first of a planned range of Android handsets from the company.

It's due out in Q1 next year, and runs Android 1.6 - a puzzling decision, given that the first handset running Android 2.0 - Motorola's Droid - goes on sale this week.

Even so, Sony Ericsson has followed in Motorola and HTC's footsteps by creating its own custom user interface that sits on top of Android. This one's called UX, and includes a couple of Sony Ericsson's own applications.

I think the best Android phone is the G1 :)

I like the full keypad and scrolling ball. The on screen optional keyboard takes up half the screen and those suck!

i saw this phone in gitex in dubai and i loved it
you can use it as a PS3 controller + you can use remote play just like the PSP

and the cam on that thing is so cool
its all touch functional
if you want to focus on something just touch it on the screen
and it'll do the rest
and the pics are really good on that thing

im not sure if its the same exact one
but it looks like it

EDIT
@below

YES thats the one
thanks

The HTC Hero has really caught my eye recently and am really considering switching from my Blackberry. I think I'm going to wait until next year though before maybe making the move to let these companies make better use of the OS and have some better features developed.

I agree. I have an iphone and while I love the user interface, the more I see about android the more it seems to be the next big thing. I like the sound of an open platform mobile device OS

I was looking forward to this phone from when I heard about in July. But that was a poor demonstration from SE. Extremely lag UI and no multitouch. They have stiff competition in the smartphone market and currently it won't compete.

I hope they completely revamp this phone for when it comes out. If so then I probably will get it.

The Droid is sick, I can't get away from my BB Storm fast enough. I can't wait til Friday. As a Verizon customer for a long time, I've been waitin for a worthwhile phone.

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.

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

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.
