bisa aja 6 juta bro. karena kalo keluarnya bener2 desember, harga 6 juta seperti masi pas2 aja. di akhir taun, pasti sudah banyak juga hp yang spek nya mirip2 ini.

btw resolusi layar SONyERisccon X1 800*480, ini sama dengan resolusi layar ASUS EEE (yang 7 inchi).

EEE 3juta an...

tapi nokia masih pake symbian OS nya loh

e90 tuh smartphone

xperia masuk ke pdaphone

jadi beda kelas, gak bisa disamain. kenapa yg mesti bandingin ma Nokia

bandingin ma O2 atom Life, dopod 838pro, dopod D810, HTC TyTn II, treo dll yg masuk kategori PDA phone.

kira2 slidernya sehalus dopod 838pro n keypad qwertynya seempuk dopod 838pro gak ya? karena HTC TyTn II juga slidernya kayaknya masih enak 838pro (CMIIW)

tetep aja mahal

iyah....

tp klo dibilang E90 kalah jauh gak juga, bisa disetarakan. Fiturnya sama cuman prosesor lebih cepet X1 lagian E90 keluarnya dah lama....

tp modelnya lebih bagus X1.....
