Sony Ericsson Xperia X2 Official

Hard to believe Sony Ericsson's Xperia X2 wasn't official until this moment�honestly, we care more about the awesome the Android-powered X3 at this point�but Sony just made it real, it running Windows Mobile 6.5.

The hard specs: 3.2-inch WVGA touchscreen, 8.1MP camera, HSPA, Wi-Fi, GPS, TV-out. And oh yes, the panels custom interface on top of Windows Mobile is back, though refined, as we saw earlier. It'll be out later this year for 699 euros, so um, not cheap if it ever comes to the US.

You'd be forgiven for doubting, or at least being disappointed with, the�first blurry shots of the Xperia X2,�Sony Ericsson's rumored followup to the�pricey-but-pretty X1. Today, we get a much better look.

The first thing that jumps out here, aside from the phone's tastefully designed brushed aluminum shell, is�Windows Mobile 6.5's finger-friendly visage: indication�though not confirmation�that this'll be one of the first wave of major 6.5 handsets, alongside�previously-announced hardware�from HTC. But above all, this means no Android, probably. Oh well!

The keyboard has a distinctive look too, bearing more resemblance to a full-size PC keyboard than a cellphone keypad. Hopefully the changes are strictly aesthetic, seeing as the previous model's keypad was one of its strongest points. Sadly, the original source isn't saying a whole lot about his device beyond what we can observe for ourselves, so for now, we simply gaze.
