I received an XPERIA X1 prototype today, and felt like doing a video unboxing of it. Before watching the video, please note that this is a prototype and that the retail box will look substantially different from the prototype box, and that the bundled accessories might differ as well. I’m counting on doing a photo gallery of this beauty tomorrow.

Discouraging results for Sony Ericsson at least. I’m personally quite happy with the quarter results, and expect to see it turn again either in Q4 or Q1 of next year. The results forces Sony Ericsson to do something about the situation. An obvious sign of crisis is when you list one of the quarter highlights as having achieved break-even results, when you exclude the restructuring chargers.
- As expected the third quarter has continued to be challenging for Sony Ericsson. We have moved forward with our plans to align operations and resources with the consolidation of R&D facilities into a more agile and cost efficient organisational structure. As previously announced, our target remains to reduce operating expenses by Euro 300 million annually by the end of the second quarter 2009, with the full effects expected to appear in the second half of 2009. These plans are progressing in line with expectations, says Dick Komiyama, President at Sony Ericsson in a press release. We are committed to executing our alignment plan as speedily as possible to ensure we have the right size and organisational structure to return the business to healthy profitability, he continues.
The results are as follows:
Don’t forget to watch the webcast about the results later today. I can’t wait for the Q&A session myself! The webcast starts at 14:30 UK time or 15:30 CET at this link.

I’ve just finished writing a large-scaled preview of the new Sony Ericsson W595. I think it’s an excellent (music) phone at a very attractive price, but its camera is not exactly the most impressive I’ve seen.
I hope I can post a preview of the Sony Ericsson W902 as well tomorrow. Some of you might be thinking why only a preview and not a full review? Well, I’m hoping that I’ve got a wee surprise coming tomorrow that’ll take most of the already decreasing amount of spare time I’ve got. Trust me, it’s worth it.

We thought it’d be rather funny to have you show us and everyone else your Sony Ericsson phone collection! We know that a bunch of you are trustful fans that keep the old trusty phones at home in your collection, and this is exactly what we’re looking for!
Send us a photo or more of your collection by e-mail (blog@se-nse.net) or by posting a link in the comments section below. We’ll post the received photos right here in this post with name and any text you want posted with them.
By the way - we could be planning a competition similar to this, so you might want to dig up the old classics! Submitted phone collections after the jump.
We think it’s safe to say that Facebook has grown into being one of the largest and most commonly used online social communities. Every day, millions of people use Facebook to get in touch with friends and keep up with interests, videos and websites.
SE-NSE / USEB has been on Facebook for quite some time now, but we’ve never really promoted the Facebook group. Up until now, that is. We plan on making lots of changes, and actively taking part of social communities is definitely one of them.
With all that said, feel free to join us on Facebook, where you can keep up with your friends and people you know from SE-NSE and maybe even get a few first-hand glimps into what will happen in the near future.
