Just about a day ahead of the big launch, a video showing off the XPERIA’s media capabilities was leaked. Seems like it will pose a definite threat to the iPhone. It looks a lot like the Zune HD’s UI and no one thnks it is a coincidence. Still, even that is a good thing because the Zune HD is another device that dare threatens Apple’s supremacy. Over all, I am tempted, very.
Do check out the XPERIA X3/Rachael rumor round up while you wait for SE to release the thing already.

The Zune: A Review
Wow, you really have no idea about much, but you like to make attempts to dish Apple. For whatever reason you don’t like them – we get it.
Number one: the iphone is extremely well established, and gaining a lot of market share, even in the business/smartphone market. As for SonyEricsson being competitive in that area – give me a break.
Number two: Their marketing sucks. Noone has heard much about them, and most of the people who have a Sony Ericsson phone will usually get a new one once their plan runs out or get renewed.
Number three: there is no IPhone killer. Android phones have tried before, and failed.
Number four: A reason why the iphone is so popular are the apps and the App Store. Does Sony have that? Not really. Nokia is trying hard and failing harder with their wanna-be app store.
(As for your comment about the Zune, take a look at ipod vs. zune sales for the last 3 quarters.)
I do wish Google would put more attention on Android. The Android Market just isn’t up to the Apps Store… it needs work.
I’m leaning toward purchasing a Droid this week, but if I do, it will _only_ be due to wanting Verizon coverage; the apps for the iPhone are still a long way ahead of Android’s offerings.
