<br>I just received email notification that Rogers is taking pre-orders for the Sony Ericsson Experia X10, $149 with a three year contract.<br><br>Ratings are nice. The big pluses are a 4-inch screen, the best camera of any Android phone (8MPix, 2 LED flashes), good battery and better-than-standard apps for IM and media play. The big minuses are that it's Android 1.6 and that it can't do multitouch.<br>
<br>So? $149 for a lock-in contract, or $529US for freedom? This would be a much easier call if the cell plans were less expensive for an unsubsidized phone, but they're not.<br><br>- Evan<br><br>
