Damn it! I was really looking forward to X1 and now its video is choppy and screen colors are inferior. First I was interested in HTC Tytn II and then found out it has some bug due to which it cannot utilize video hardware acceleration and therefore video performance is crappy.

These are supposed to be flagship products of these companies. Why cant they do it right for once?

The x1 looks really interesting .. i hate the new touch screen keyboards i prefer to have something solid within my hands, the E71 while good on features lacks alot when it comes to design ( in my opinion) i like being able to hide the keyboard when i am not using it and plus the X1 has style :) As for the android .. well lets wait and see what they come with , if they manage to incorporate most of the features they are capable of integrating in thsi handset well then we have a clear winner :)

I’m anxious for the iPhone! And X1 but only to check it out, I’m hoping that the iPhone will be my next phone.

My E61i’s screen is now cracked in like 4 places. I really need a new phone and Nokia seems to be taking their time with the E71!

according to a first hand review on Cnet.com, the X1 from SE is not all that.
the screen has only 65,000 colors vs. current screens of 252K and 16 million colors,

also from their video review, they did mention that the X1 could use a graphic accelerator, since the graphics are a bit choppy!
