To All:

I live in Indonesia and will give you a price list for you to know outside Indonesia, when first launched the price for:

- Nokia E90 : IDR 11,500,000.00 to 15,000,000.00 (USD 1,150.00 - 1,500.00)
- Nokia N85 : IDR 6,800,000.00
to 6,950,000.00 (USD 680 - 695)
- Nokia N96 : IDR 7,900,000.00 (USD 790.00)
- Blackberry 9000 Bold : IDR 8,500,000.00 to 9,000,000.00 (USD 850.00 - 900.00)
- Samsung Omnia : IDR 7,500,000.00 to 8,000,000.00 (USD 750.00 - 800.00)
- HTC Touch Diamond : IDR 7,500,000.00 (USD 750.00)
- HTC Touch Pro : IDR 8,000,000.00 to 8,500,000.00 (USD 800.00 - 850.00)

If this Xperia X1 cost USD 800.00, compare with e.g.
- Samsung Omnia with its lower display resolution & crappy build quality like Samsung U700. Any comments?
- Blackberry Bold with its insimplicity menu & questionable quality of its camera?
- Nokia with their un-innovative (should I call boring?) design?

Please don't make unworthy fuss, will ya? I agree that you can by a great notebook. But is it portable enough for you to carry without bag? Fit in your pocket ha?

I red all of your comments. Nothing but complaints. You will this if you want, need & can afford it. Simple!!

                I love the Xperia i want it now! It looks so beautiful and its made of proper material not plastic, its also small enough to hold in your palm.

                  Finally theres the machine!
                  I do agree that the price ir realy hi but...what cam we do, is the first SE with Windows OS...and lets agree that is a big machine!
                  I think it will be cheaper in the next 2 mounths
                  I'll buy it when it reached 600USD.

                    I would definitely go for the HTC Touch Pro... both have identical spec sheets and guess what...BOTH are manufactured by HTC... And the Pro is cheaper??? man... talk about a no brainer!!

                        Erm, I really don't think the N96 is in any way in the same class as The Xperia. This is the future baby.....Can't wait to own 1.

                                This is for sale in some pricey "get it here first" online store. Once it's released generally (and carrier subsidised) it'll be half the price. As always with these things.

                                  but i think se will drop the price very fast
                                  since i saw the w980i dropped slightly fast after announce not until 1month

                                    and i donno this phone got what pro
                                    Omnia better than this one
                                    don't say this expensive thing better than Omnia, this product is just an initial product of SE using WIN
                                    donno SE can carry the system anot
