when you consider having to be locked into a 2 yr contract and termination fees etc. or using a carrier you really do not like on top of the fact that you do not have a cell carrier partner kicking in $200-$400 of the cost of each phone (which they do because they know they will make it up by locking you into a contract), this is why this phone is more expensive

One thing people seem to forget in pricing comparisons is that this phone is not locked to one carrier. Those carriers pay to subsidize the cost of the phone as part of the deal so what you are actually paying as a consumer is a subsidized cost...not the full price...as you are seeing here with this Xperia. There was just a news article about AT&T earnings taking a hit due to extraordinary iPhone sales and the expense to their bottom line for the part of the phones that they are subsidizing

Nokia N96 better or Sony Ericsson Xperia X1

Too bad the final version is STILL buggy and laggy. It seems to take a full second or two for the phone to return to the panel screen, which is annoying. Also, swiping gestures seem to kill the cpu of the phone. AGAIN the iPhone is still number one in touch screen technology. The blackberry storm tried to get there, but the fact that its screen is a big-ass button ruined typing speeds. This Xperia is just wrong. The Nokis 5800Xpress and the HTC touch are also too slow to compete. Apple ftw
