I think I should just sell my laptop and get an X1. Cause even my laptop has just 256 mb RAM.

I recently wrote a post on my tech blog on this phenomenon of how mobiles now come equipped with computer-like configurations. If anybody's interested, pls PM me and I will send the link to the article. (I am not sure whether I can provide the direct link since its my blog and could be considered as advertising)

Well there is a special thread in Chit Chat specially dedicated for posting your tech related blog posts. You can post the link to your blog post in that thread along with a short intro to it.

Can you give me a source??

Mujhe laga thoda zyaada hoga.

www.expansys.com

www.play.com

Pat · 19-09-2008, 02:41 AM

expansys.com : 1,063.79 USD 49,249.72 INR
play.com: 1,081.64 USD 50,076.02 INR

play.com has it listed for 500 pounds, I am pretty sure it does not include VAT (Its not needed in some places in UK if I am not wrong, but you need to pay it everywhere else)

So what do you guys have to say now ?

dreamcatcher · 19-09-2008, 07:44 AM

WTF!!!

Wait..lemme check..i am positive i saw it for 850+ shipping.

As it seems a good pile of cash, or exactly 619 euro (890 US dollars), can make you one of the first owners of the high-resolution, high-spec'd, high-everything HTC Touch HD. Interestingly enough, that price tag goes good 20 euro below the pre-order price of Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1.

http://www.mobilefun.co.uk/product/15912.htm

The play.com price is including vat too.

VAT in india is much less than that in the uk and sweden, so we will get it at a revised rate of 450 euroes.

bear in mind that this is the preorder price, so it will jump down dramatically after release.

desiibond · 19-09-2008, 09:06 AM

Always, unlocked phones in USA and europe cost a bomb. I would rather wait for the phone to come out in India.

eg: Sony Ericsson W760i internation version is sold for 400USD. Which comes to around 19k and normal version is sold for 340USD.

N81 8Gb costs 450USD. that is around 21.5k.

I just saw the webcast and I must say its a big let down. It faces the same problem that practically all smartphones with windows-mobile face: Slow (even though it sports an awesome proccy), pressure-sensitive touch screen, scrolling/closing apps/navigating is a PITA without stylus. Honestly though, I was not expecting any miracles (its windows-mobile afterall

)

dreamcatcher · 19-09-2008, 03:44 PM

This guy has been using this phone for 7 months and it is not the latest build as he has already said.

Check this review:- Its almost the final version-

Pat · 20-09-2008, 02:10 AM

A little performance improvement for sure. Still not as smooth as on iPhone.

Boot time is not the greatest. (Not that it matters a lot)

Scrolling is going to suck big time (look how he applies pressure with the top of fingers/nails to register a touch on the screen). Similar problems while closing apps.

One thing I noticed is that after the guy inserted the headset for FM, it started playing through loud-speaker ? How did that happen ?

dreamcatcher · 20-09-2008, 08:13 AM

There are a few options.In most phones they provide for music through fm or headphone, i guess he selected the former.
I a sure the final version will be smoother and better.Coming to the iphone part, the iphone doesnt have half the things the XPERIA has and has a lot less memory jams to deal with.
