3GSM is ON at Barcelona now (I know the name is now Mobile World Congress, but old habits die hard…).

The big news so far is the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1. You can find pretty good pics here at Hong Kong Phone Daily, which both Gizmodo and Engadget fail to come up with any good stuff (Sunday evening PST).

Sure it’s a nice phone, and many anti-iPhone fanboyz already claiming this as the end of the iPhone, but those people forget XPERIA X1 is still powered by Windows Mobile 6…. I have nothing against Windows Mobile 6 and I am actually a fan of Windows Mobile’s Today screen…, but skinning something on top of WM6 is not the right approach to solve the Windows Mobile (over all) UI problem.
