Despite many reports last week of the device slipping to 2009, the guys over at the Unofficial Sony Ericsson blog have it from the horses mouth that this will not be the case:-

I can confirm that we will be launching the X1 product in 2nd Half of 2008, as per our announcement of 10th February that we made in Barcelona, said Aldo Liguori, who is the Corporate Vice President of the Global Communications and PR department at Sony Ericsson.

So, there you have it. The only reason for the mysterious “10th of February release” is the fact that Sony Ericsson (or should I say Microsoft) has yet to decide on when to publicly announce the operating system and technical specifications of the X1, and thereby also a precise release date.

I guess we will see how GOOD their quality control is, this year maybe. Provided MS feels like announcing 6.1 this year.

You'd be surprised what GOOD software developers can do and how quickly they can do it. :)
