OK whilst I’m not the biggest fan of Windows Mobile… I am mighty impressed with the Xperia. Sony Ericsson’s first Windows Mobile phone.
I haven’t had a play with it… so I can’t talk about the user experience. The thing that excites me is the panels option. The phone has space for 9 different panels on its desktop… with panels available from providers such as Google, Microsoft and Sony Ericsson themselves.
What I especially like is that Sony Ericsson have opened up their code to developers so that people with the know-how and willingness to try something new can develop their own pages.
Cool Hunting… one of my fave blogs and a go-to site for the best in design… has created a panel specifically for their website. I respect their proactivity here.
This proactivity has manifest itself previously with their iPhone/iPod Touch-specific mobile website. There’s is the kind of forethought that I love as a consumer of meaningful content… and is the kind of thing that keeps me going back for more.
