Sony Ericsson puts developers at the centre of user experience with XPERIA™ X2

02 September 2009

New streamlined development tool maximises revenue opportunities and allows developers to create the first Windows Mobile® 6.5 applications for the XPERIA™ X2

Lund, Sweden – September 2, 2009 – Sony Ericsson launches the Panel SDK in a drive to encourage developers to create content for the XPERIA™ X2. The eye-catching interface includes a new range of interactive Panels on the home screen offering business, fun and communication features. By providing unparalleled real estate and marketing visibility, the Panel interface makes the developer central to the user experience.

The Panel SDK includes a Panelizer which turns existing Flash, Java and Windows Mobile® applications into Panels for the XPERIA™ X2, and a native software development kit which allows developers to be the first to create panels for the Windows Mobile® 6.5 platform.

Using the Panelizer, developers are able to maximise the investments they have already made creating compelling applications. In just a couple of clicks and with no separate tool purchase, the Panelizer gives developers a low-cost way to turn their content into the unique Sony Ericsson Panel experience. Panels are then just one touch away from the consumer’s home screen, allowing developers to truly shape the user’s mobile entertainment experience.

Besides supporting Panels and native applications, the XPERIA™ X2 is also equipped with a Java Runtime that makes Java/Capuchin applications run as well integrated as native applications.

Applications accepted as panels will be made available on Sony Ericsson’s market place, PlayNow™ arena, giving developers access to an even wider range of consumers using other Sony Ericsson handsets. Developers from around the world also benefit from the 70% net revenue share offered by PlayNow™ arena, which is available in 18 countries.

“Putting developers’ applications directly in front of consumers is a crucial focus for us,” says Christopher David, Head of Developer and Partner Engagement at Sony Ericsson. “We created the Panel SDK to streamline the development process, minimising the time it takes to get applications directly to the consumer and providing developers with additional revenue opportunities.”

How it works

Developers can submit their applications by following these simple steps:

* Go to Sony Ericsson’s Developer World website [tautan dihapus]

* Download the Panel SDK and follow the short Panel SDK tutorial

* Go to [tautan dihapus] and upload ‘Panelized’ applications

* Within 30 days the submission approval process will be complete. Successful applications are automatically available for wider usage on PlayNow™ arena.

"bug2 yg terkesan sepele tetapi cukup mengganggu" itu contohnya apa ya sis?

klo buat push email ato online trus mungkin sekitar 1-2 hari!

Bro Azure19, X2 nya kerasa ngelag banget ga?
Denger-denger sih WinMo bikin lag gitu..

Kira-kira klo dibandingkan dengan UIQ3.0 lebih lag mana yah? (klo bro Azure19 pernah nyobain UIQ3.0)

Terus liat di youtube ini kok kayaknya X2-nya ga ada lag yang berarti yah, apa punya bro Azure19 juga kayak gitu?

yup sama kya d youtube kok!
gag ada lag yg berarti!

tp kadang2 aja suka lag ampe layar diem n hrs d softreset!tp buat gw sih ga ngeganggu bgt,

klo gtu gw pernah nyobain W950 ama G700,

klo dibandingin ama X2 sih lebih cepet UIQ3 (tp bukan dalem arti lag ya!)

soalnya windows mobile kn berat!

tp soal aplikasi gw sih lebih prefer k windows mobile!^^

IMO UIQ 2.1 ( P900i n P910i ) jauh lebih cepat tuh dibanding UIQ 3, WinMo oke juga kok

X2 Application update (26/02/2010)

maaf gan new bie baru pake x2 jadi masi bingung... ini mozilla bisa di install di x2 ga?? trus cara setting gprs ma mms trus email gmana gan?? ane pake provider im3.. tolong di bantu agan-2 thx...

emang mozilla buat winmo udah ada?perasaan baru buat maemo dweh.

-- Posted from my Symbian Device

itu mozilla fenec!bukan mozilla firefox! ane dah coba instal,tp kurang bagus bro!plg bagus tetep opera!^^

-- Posted from my Symbian Device

agan-2 mohon pecerahan itu cara install ke hp nya gmana?? pas kita download file kan masi dlm bentuk rar... maaf masi newbie.. pgn coba pake spb shell juga

installer yg dijalanin langsung dari memcard itu berekstensi .cab . kalo di PC, tergantung aplikasi handler-nya apa. iconnya bisa icon winzip ato winrar.

coba diliat dulu di dalam file rar itu ada file dengan ekstensi cab atau tidak (liat di PC), kalo misalnya ada, ya di ekstrak dulu, baru file cab-nya dikirim ke hp.

habis itu tinggal install...

dan rasanya di FP ini sebutan bro n sis lebih familiar daripada agan... lain lubuk lain belalang.

salam

maaf bro kebiasaan makasih ya tutornya... da bisa install amplikasinya smua

bro mao mao nanya ne x2 support video call ga?? kalo ane tanya ke conternya se bil bisa tapi ampliakasinya blm keluar... kalo di forum luar bil gak bisa... yg di dpn itu bkn kamera,tapi light sensor... mana yg benar ya??
