New Sony Ericsson video shows off Rachael UI; Screen resolution matches DROID's

A leaked video that shows off the UI of the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10-better known as Rachael-also gives us an important clue about the device. The title of the video gives away the interesting news that Rachael's display will have the same 480 X 854 resolution as the Motorola DROID. As for the video itself, we get to see and hear how Rachael will display and play your tunes, videos and pictures. Sony Ericsson's first Android handset is shaping up nicely. Forget being an iPhone challenger, it looks like the X10 will be a real DROID challenger.

Screen resolution may match the DROID's, but the rumoured spec sheet for the XPERIA X3 / X10 completely murder the specs of the DROID.

ooohh sexyy sexy. It looks nothing like android but if the final product looks like this im definitely getting one! Anyone know what carrier its gonna be released on? Or if its going to be unlocked? Hopefully its T-Mo... them and at&t are just about the only carriers I can see launching a sony ericcson handset. I dont think verizon and sprint are partners. Kinda like how LG isnt partners with T-Mobile. And At&T has iPhone and the point of android was to pretty much contradict iphones os so them getting an android device is somewhat unlikely but not impossible. Im hopin its unlocked gsm or goes to tmo!

Odds are no one and thats the problem. None of sony's flagship phones have been carried by a US carrier for a long time. You get little throw away releases here and there but Xperia, Idou (or whatever they ended up calling it), and likely this phone have all been direct full retail phones (at the price of 1 arm, 1 leg).

The only possible carrier is AT&T...but I wouldn't bet on it (they still seem beholden to the iPhone). I would just plan to buy this phone unlocked, hopefully that won't require bank loan, given the prices of SE devices in the past.
