Android phones, apps and tablets

I said this 5 days ago...........

............With all of this in mind, I'm going to make a prediction. I think SE must have a new top-end phone under wraps, that will look to take on the Samsung Galaxy S, Motorola Droid X, and even the HTC Desire HD. If I'm wrong, SE are sunk. They'll fall so far behind, they won't even be a blip on the radar. Its sink or surf for them.

And today I find out that Sony Ericsson have been gearing up to release an Android PlayStation Phone. This makes all the sense in the world to me. At the rate of acceleration of phone development, they needed to do something special. If they get it right, they'll be laughing like hyenas. And it explains why SE have dragged their feet in updating current phones.

Which brings me neatly to: SE are officially going to update the X10 this month to 2.1 Eclair. It won't help that at the same time, the Samsung Galaxys S, is getting the Froyo 2.2 treatment. SE's update news, with video.

Lastly, Opera Mobile finally gets its beta to Android. I used this on Symbian, and it was quite excellent in that guise.
