And in other news that's remotely connected to the Sony Ericsson P1, we have the specific release date for SE's incoming business flagship model. Yes, the XPERIA X1 is finally launching on September the 30th.

Sweden, Germany, and the UK will be the inaugural launch sites come September 30, with no fewer than 32 more on tap in Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America for the fourth quarter of the year. North America, China, Australia, and Russia are also listed as committed launch regions, though dates for those will be announced "in the coming months" -- scary verbiage considering that they weren't even willing to slap the Q4 label there.
I just wonder how many of you readers will feel compelled to switch. Will this signify the real end of the SE P1? Not likely, if the cost is exactly what MobileCity is offering to interested users. Just brace yourself and be prepared to pay a huge premium if you're getting it on the day it's coming out.

    30.9.? Really? http://www.sonyericsson.com/premiere/ there is 15.9. ...

    Windoze Immobile? No thanks!
    The only things other phones have that my P1i doesn't are better camera/flash and built-in GPS.
    The camera isn't that big a deal and my Bluetooth GPS receiver and free (ahem) copy of TomTom are far better than what any other phone has.
    I'll wait to see what Android has to offer whilst continuing to laugh at Apple fanboys and their pathetic toy.

    100% agreed...x1 has crap wm...so, no option for me

    with all the mods/hacks just starting, opera 9.5 confirmed (yes, i did get inside info), my p1 will last atleast on more year and a half, and then i will see what SE has to offers in terms of symbian, then

    Excellent news.Anyone want my N95-2.I think Im jumping ship again.

    I love how it looks and UI looks great, but having play with the real thing is . . . I don't know how to explain but I just hate to use WinMo

  6. ASchild // September 11, 2008 3:55:00 AM HKT  

    No, I won't change. I hope my P1i works just one more year, and then by that time consider some android mobiles....

    Three years ago I had an iMate K-jam. The XPERIA is a redesign, with one added value, a new HOME user interface on top of the WM one. However, I sure hope the reset button is placed in a convenient location for frequent use. The problem is WM not the device.

    I sure hope SonyEricsson do well in competing with Samsumg Omnnia "the iPhone like WM device".

    Anyway, i thought and rethought, and since I am a businessman, and a gadget addict,the only alternative would be to wait another year for a WIMAX WIFI GPS front QWERTY symbian device to appear. Nokia already implemented WIMAX on the T810, a concept similar to XPERIA without the phone.

    The future is near, in the mean time, try out the NOKIA E71 if you want to simplify your life, no touch, but slim WIFI GPS device for business.

    For me, I have my own GDesk front page on the p1i, and that's all I need, the device lets me set appointments, assingn tasks, and write notes, I can also do VOIP calls with fring, and post blogs with google B.

    Take it easy, or if you have the money and the spare time, hell with it, keep jumping ships.

    Gotta agree with the guys. Xperia isn't a big step up. My P1i works like a dream no probs ever.

    Although my next phone probably won't be SE as from what we can all see their firmware updates are s*"t!

    Unless they give us what we want they can kiss my business goodbye!
