Sony Ericsson Experia Mini Pro

got this little beauty today as my free upgrade from orange and after having it for a few hours i can say i'm really impressed!
it is both capacitive and resistive and has a nice compact slide out QWERTY keyboard that is easy to use,
connecting to wifi is quick and its very responsive
loads of free apps on android market place and a nice solid feel to phone, obviously it's more on the chunky side because of the keyboard and is on the small side but screen resolution is perfect and colour and screen size perfectly adequate

all in all I love it!! and am very happy with it!

anyone else got one?

I have now! Managed to get a reasonably cheap second-hand one in great condition.

I'm not terribly keen on the SMS idea of 'conversations' - I'd rather have an inbox - and the music player software is a bit disappointing. But the phone hardware itself is terrific.

I've got a Sony Xperia Mini (same phone but without the slide out keyboard) and I'm more than happy with it.
It's 100% better than the old x10 mini.

Its fully Capacitive. No resistive in it at all.

I've still got and using the original X10 Mini. Android Conversations are the pits. I still can't get used to it after all this time. Like the look of the new Xperia Mini Pro but am put off by virtue of the fact that it's a lot heavier.

Just as soon as it became available

Like the look of it's replacement but at this stage it's too full of bugs:

I bought one of these a couple of weeks ago and I really like it especially the slide-out key board. I know that battery life has proved an issue for a lot of people but I use the phone for calls, texting and checking my e-mails and haven't found the battery life to be a problem so far
