Johnny X - Useless? - XPERIA X1 General

Hi,
I had to ask... 3 episodes in, Johnny X seems like a completely useless marketing strategy. The episodes make little sense, and fail to please.
Frankly, the appearance on Xperia on Knight Rider did more for the phone than Johnny X has done so far...
What do you say?
Best regards.

Haven't seen it - probably won't

hope people dont hold being on the new knight rider agenst the x1
heard it's pretty bad

Funny you say that... it was a total let down from the original Knight Rider - but was not a complete failure either. I'm going to give a couple more episodes a shot and then decide if its worth the 45/week minutes or not.
And yep, you guessed it... in that episode it was pretty much the highlight for me to see the Xperia.
(and yeah, i know this directly doesn't have to do with Xperia much - but the official launch is still a few days away, and we have to kill time somehow! )

Is the Mini Better suited for Women?

My girlfriend is looking for a PocketPC, in terms of ergonomics, would you say this model is better for women?
I don't think it is that simple, that certain devices are better for women or men. If you have small hands, it would be good.
But is your gf a geek? My wife is for sure not, and she is very happy with her dead tree calendar/addressbook and her simple Ericsson T65 phone (and she didn't want to inherit my old Cassipeia PDA).

Woman and computers , if you ask me, that doesn't match very well
I thought females preferred LARGER packages! :lol: :lol:
SOME of the women dont like messing with complicated **** all they want is to make calls and recieve and calendar etc. any phone will do. But if your woman is ready to mess with files and registry keys and not get irritated about hard-resets. If she's an avid PDA User then JAM is the way to go. But i have never seen a girl/lady carry one.

Hehe, if i see a girl holding a Mini and it's all supped up with accessories, that'll be good
At least that's a girl who'd understand why i spend so much money on gadgets and am always broke....haha...
Don't you hate it when your GF's always complaining why you spend so much money on "toys" and not on her? haha
I'm a girl and I have an o2 XDA mini
I agree that it doesn't matter whether you're male or female - if you're into computer toys you'll love a mini!
I Love My Mini

I saw a women using a magician in a popular TV sitcom (US). I remember saying outload to everyone in the room, " Look ..Look, OMG that women is using a phone just like mine." Then they just looked at me like soo. I guess they didn't understand my enthusiasm :lol:
Thanks for all the replies.
My original posts focused on ergonomics, but someone says it best:
"If you lke sophiticated toys (something like that) you'll like the Mini."
It is a great gear, ain't it? Too bad with all the things you can do, the original battery can't quite taking it to "be all it can be"...
My wife has accidentally dropped my MDA on the floor as soon as she has held it in the hands for the first time. :evil: My MDA has scratched now. I think this device will be killed soon if she'll be its owner.
I have to agree with georgexoasi. PDA/smartphone combos have so far been for techies who don't mind updating the ROM (or more likely wait for the next update, even if ther's nothing to fix).
The only stable smartphone platform I know of is Series 60 Symbian.
My P900 showed promise but dried up with a crap one handed interface and very little 'cool' software.
The iMate Jam has been the best one so far, but it still requires a weekly reboot and it still has sound quality issues etc.
If she want a smart looking phone get a razr, if she want's a gadget get the Jam!

A weekly reboot? Can you please elaborate?
he's probably talking about a soft-reset wherein your device reboots and cleans up a bit, releases ram etc etc. I do it everyday or when my device seems to be slowing down. takes only a few seconds, natural for ppcs.
Sorry to bump a 1 month old post, but I just gotta say that both my sister and my fiancee are looking at getting Jams of their own.
All it took for my sister was seeing "Who wants to be a Millionaire" and "Virtual Pool".
And my fiancee just loves all the skinning, themes, and Solitaire!
Plus they both wanted to get iPod minis until I showed them pPod with my 1gig card!!
Between the 2 of them I barely get to play with it!!

The Htc Diamond Youtube Player Is Awesome!

And im not impressed, i can youtube already on my phone, i would like if it had a rewind feature, i hate watching youtube and cant go back.
Its sad that from here on out every single phone will try to be like the iphone. Wouldnt that just make people want an iphone more? This has all been done before with this phone called Iphone® made by a company called Apple® you should check it out.... this Diamond Touch is nothing that hasnt been done before. "For peat sake" go out and buy an iphone! I am!

Yes I've played with my mates iPhone, it was nice, slick and I wont deny was a nice phone but come on your starting to sound like Steve with all those copyright logos
Lets be nice guys. All i was addressing was, how many phones came out ever since the iphone, that didnt remind you in some way of the iphone? This Diamond is nice and all. I just see a wannabee iphone. Not being mean just saying. So please, lets respect each others comments.

Actually, I think the iPhone took a lot from older HTC phones and put it in their own package.
awww get off his back
he said nothing offensive...nor did he put anyone or anything "down"....just stated his opinion...to which he is entitled....that said...I agree that the apple more or less tends to miss quite a bit of what a ppc can do....even after it goes 3g there will be much to be desired.....just my opinion

I understand what you are talking. In my opinion, Iphone also trying to be more like windows. Apple tried very hard to add Microsoft office into their phone. And they also start to open their app to 3rd party (windows had done it long time ago). I think that each phone is trying to add as much as ability they can to become the most powerful phone. It is hard to say which phone copy which phone.
i think we shouldnt start the old iphone discussion again, but:
The iphone was more innovative than any other phone. Appel was the first that realised that mobile Internet will be the future.
But i wont even buy a iphone, okay
But what the hell did htc with windows mobile, its unbelievable and great, so please hack that **** and make me cab or buy me a Diamond
oh i forgot, make some drivers for mit touchcruise too, because i cant wait 1 hour for reading a email

Holy crap! Apple invented mobile internet!!
IMO....
I don't think it wants to be an iPhone but an iPhone killer. Personally I (for the first time) skipped a generation and didn't get a Kaiser upgrade from my Hermes (AT&T branded) as it didn't seem as impressive as the upgrade from my Wizard to the Hermes... actually my Wizard from the Blue Angel was the most impressive jump, then I met Jose Faria ...
The HTC Raphael (Diamond with a keyboard) is definitely worth the wait I believe.
As for the iPhone, big deal. To me it's just an iPod that can phone home. The browser IS nice but that's about it. As a phone it sucks. Edge sucks. No DirectPush email sucks (so what that it'll be available in June or so they say) And the lack of a real keyboard.... SUCKS! Very few people I know are really happy with their iPhones, but then that's probably just the crowd I hang with...
Just my two cents ...

simply no
their have been a handful of phones that try to imitate iphone... but the majority that dont far outway the majority that do...
simply put i think users want to imitate the iphone more so than the companies
Personally I believe discussing which phone is best, without specifying your needs, is pointless because it's all due to perspective. However, as far as "comapny's and people trying to imitate." Thank god they are! That's the type of competitive marketing that brings new ideas and technology. Hell, that's why the iPhone is here. So please stop complaining "Th3yr try1ng t0 b3 li3k if0ne!" because after all, the PS3 is just trying to be like Atari!
That being said, I am more interested in the Raphael than the Diamond. I wasn't impressed with trying to use the OEM keyboard on the Touch, so unless they fix that, I'm loving my QWERTY. Although, if they fix it, it WOULD be nice to be able to type single-handedly..

Justin Bieber uses the HTC HD2?

What do you think looking from the pic?
Do you know of any other celebrities that uses the powerhouse known as the HTC hd2 or have they been bribed by Apple?
Please let me know what you think...
This is not an HD2, imo. The little chrome-thingy at the side is not present at an HD2, and the part of the housing above the battery cover is too slim.
looks more like a blackberry to me with the logo at the middle on the back
great now i have to burn this phone.
actually that looks like a blackberry storm 2.
Thank god its not an HD2 I was about to throw mine as far away as I could
How does that look like an HD2 to you?
It's definitely a storm.
its definetly NO hd2
if the others say its a storm, its a storm
thats logical, isnt it? =)

thank god! .... i don´t have to burn, smash and vaporize my HD2 ...
... or run against these strange "doorthings" ...
At a quick glance it does have the same black trim with an HD2 like battery cover, and the size looks convincing.... But I can say 100% it is a Blackberry. 3 things tip it off.
1. Wrong shape and size for the camera
2. The phone is branded Verizon on the bottom by his finger (the Verizon symbol is visible on a large screen HDTV and zoomed in).
3. His hands would be too small to hold an HD2... Just kidding The top symbol is the Blackberry logo.
And the answer is: a Blackberry Storm 2, and not his! He was given the phone with the pre programed number in it for the Jimmy Kimmel show. He owns an iPhone as seen many times in public and even recently. If you think about it, isn't the iPhone more of a kids phone as most apps and games are geared for a younger crowd?
Just for the record, I don't follow him or claim to like his music (although he is much better than Soulja Boy... Actualy anything is better than Soulja Boy) I just wanted to put this post to rest and hopefully get J.B. off the first page.
Thanks god it is not HD2 =) She needs iPhone as every 13year old girl.
"justin bieber" i just had to google that, now when my GF looks at thew computer history she is gonna think im into **** music :'(
Who really cares about what celebrity is using which phone?The most important people for me as far as phone issues are those great cooks and editors of this great forum.They make things happen for us and rock our devices while the celebrities only get drunk and show us their "shinny pants".

Thanks for clearing up the confusion it's just that while I was watching the the video clip and the size of the phone seemed to point towards the HTC HD2.
And btw I'm younger than Bieber by a month and love the HTC HD2, whilst my friends play 'falldown' and 'doodle jump' Im busy fragging zombies on Medieval using FPSece

Garbage phone to match his garbage music

There most certainly is Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 that you can play on Xperia PLAY... but it's not what you think it is.
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.glu.android.cod6
As I stated in my topic a few times, the one on Android is a tactical overhead 2D shooter, not the 3D online phenomenon most people associate that name with.
They should've named the game something else... it's actually not a bad game, but people will have that automatic bias against it not being what they think it is and hate it before they give it a chance.
so i guess in the end this is a cod game compatible with the xperia play ...a ****ty version but cod nonetheless ok all i needed to know can close thread
How could it not be possible Activision Publishing Inc. could make a good usable version of call Of duty for the Xperia Play. Look what they did For Call Of Duty Zombies on the iPhone. But it's really hard to play it on a touch screen. I am a call of duty multiplayer and zombie fan and am hoping they at least port zombies over to android. But then again they never even brought Black Ops to the PSP. So I don't expect it on the Xperia Play any time soon.
