As one astute tipster’s pointed out, the XPERIA X1a is at this time available for pre-order on the bes. Buy site. at this time that the phone’s really, finally, almost in this place are you totally psyched? Or have you been too busy playing with your G1 to notice? Like we saw last week, the phone will retail for $799.99 in its unlocked form, and there’s no word yet on pricing with a plan. Order at this time and they claim you’ll receive the phone as soon as November 28th. So… what are you waiting for?

Given that Dubai pretty much has it out for every other spectacle in the entire universe, it’s no shock to see the mecca pick up a major consumer electronics trade show of its own. This year’s GITEX 2008 has come and gone, but there are still images left to remind us of the show that was. PocketPCDubai was fortunate enough to tour the show floor with a camera in hand, and while the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 wasn’t a shocker, there were Truly a few intriguing WinMo handsets in attendance. For a look at what all TechFaith had to offer (along with a few shots of the luscious Touch HD from HTC), head on down to the read link.

If you’ve read through our thorough review of Sony Ericsson’s XPERIA X1, by at this time you’re probably chomping at any number of bits to get your hands on the device. Well, thanks to the FCC, you can rest easier knowing you’re one step closer to actually touching, holding, and hugging the phone (the US-destined X1a, that is). Amongst other things, the documents seem to disclose — we’ll stop short of saying confirm — that a black version will be in play when it arrives in the States, though we feel that page 46 of the 114 page test report was more revealing in many ways. Don’t believe us? Hit the read link and take a look for yourself.
