Don’t expect anything really new in there, If you have some spare time hit of the read link below. Keep in mind that the X2 is probably Sony Ericsson’s last Windows Mobile device.

But there’s still time before the launch at the end of the month, and if things are speeded up by then Sony Ericsson will have a pretty nifty device to launch through Vodafone.

Finally Knowyourmobile upped a short (blurry) video of the device:
