Episode 157: A look at the Sony Ericsson X10

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

I sat down with the Sony Ericsson X10 and had a little play with it on camera. I like the device a lot.

If you’re a standard user, I think you’ll enjoy most aspects of the phone. If you are a geek like me, some of the social networking features that work nicely for normal folk don’t quite work when you’ve hundreds of tweets flying past every minute, so I aimed to evaluate the device in that regard. I also pointed out that you should definitely consider keeping a charger at work if you’re aiming to use the X10 ‘in anger’ — like most phones of it’s calibre, it needs a lot of juice across the day to keep it’s gorgeous screen bright and the data feeds flowing.

Episode 42: Christopher David of Sony Ericsson Dev

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

I sat down — a little while ago now — with Christopher David, Head of Developer and Partner Engagement at Sony Ericsson. Apart from being a thoroughly nice chap and very knowledgeable on the industry, I found him disarmingly frank. If you’re into mobile development, I think this will certainly get your attention and quite possibly change your mind about one the Sony Ericsson platform. For too long, Sony Ericsson has been relegated to the back-of-the-room when it came to discussing mobile development platforms — and undeservedly so. They’ve got a massive amount of infrastructure invested in the PlayNow platform — so much so that, if you’re interested, you can actually reach a TON (and I mean MILLIONS) of Sony Ericsson users, right now, via that gateway.

Anyway, watch the video and see what you think… There’s more to come from Christopher.
