Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 Available Early Q4 with Windows Mobile 6.5


Sony Ericsson announces the Xperia X2, powered by the new Windows Mobile 6.5 in a similar design but improved hardware specs compare to Xperia X1. The Xperia X2 also includes the unique SlideView feature, which provides quick access to frequently used phone activities. SlideView gives an overview of missed incoming activity, notifying the user of any missed calls, e-mails and text messages so users don’t overlook an important contact.

With 14 specially designed preloaded Xperia panels and 16 more to download, you can quickly switch to panels like Skype, Mytopia, Google, CNN and Windows Live. Although the new X2 will only be upgraded to a 3.2-inch full touch screen, the new Windows Phone now comes with a 8.1 megapixel camera and flash LED.

“In the fast moving world we live in, the need to stay connected has never been so important.” said Sumit Malhotra, marketing business manager, Sony Ericsson. “We constantly rely on our mobile phones as an extension to the office and the XPERIA X2 debuting with Windows Mobile 6.5, allows users to work quickly and efficiently while on the move. The XPERIA X2 also features a new range of interactive panels as well as SlideView, which provides quick access to frequently used phone activities – perfect for those who need to see any missed incoming activity at a glance.”

Sony Ericsson launches Panel SDK for Developer


Sony Ericsson this week launches the Panel SDK in a drive to encourage developers to create content for the new Xperia X2. The Panel SDK includes a Panelizer which turns existing Flash, Java and Windows Mobile applications into Panels for the Xperia X2, and a native software development kit which allows developers to be the first to create panels for the Windows Mobile 6.5 platform.

“Putting developers’ applications directly in front of consumers is a crucial focus for us,” says Christopher David, Head of Developer and Partner Engagement at Sony Ericsson. “We created the Panel SDK to streamline the development process, minimising the time it takes to get applications directly to the consumer and providing developers with additional revenue opportunities.”
