Sony Xperia X1 comes out of hiding
By WC Staff last updated

It seems like an eternity since Dieter got some serious hands-on time (opens in new tab) with the Sony Xperia X1. And in the tech world, it certainly has been, what with the launch of the HTC Diamond (opens in new tab) and that other "smart" phone (opens in new tab) taking center stage recently.
But the X1 has been lurking and still appears headed for a fall release. IntoMobile recently mentions a November launch on Australia's 3 network, and inexperia's got a French connection (opens in new tab) stating mid-October, for about $1,000 sans contract.
As for the U.S., we're still hoping for a September release, with AT&T the likely carrier.
Check in after the jump for Dieter's hands-on specs.
