Sony Ericsson has announced four new panels for Xperia X1 at MWC2009. The first will be preferred by those who just can't live without their daily dose of fear: it fetches CNN news 24/7.
The Skype panel is based on the popular application, it has visual effects changing by the time of the day (they didn't reveal how does it determine the time of the day based on our current location).
The Mytopia panel is aimed at gamers: online bingo and poker are included in the offer and also some virtual money. The money amount will determine our rank.
The On the road panel is a solution for travelers and those who have Parkinson's disease, as it has huge, easy to hit icons. From the panel we can directly access our favourite music, which will make us happy during our travel.
This is all great, and even better if we consider that the Swedish guys didn't announce any successor in this category - the arrival of Idou is currently a far away thing. If these panels will have a speed different from what we have seen on the previous ones, then they can be quite useful, but based on previous experience we would rather expect a new model instead of some optical tuning.
