GPS Skinner: Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 Smartphone

Wooh...are we excited for this phone or what?

Synopsis

GPS Skinner supports a number of devices with varying resolutions. We recently made some changes to take advantage of VGA screen which gives you so much real estate to play with. So when we heard that the new Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 Smartphone was going sport a GPS and a 800x480 pixel VGA screen we thought it would be the ideal platform for the GPS Skinner.

We did a couple of tests using a VGA Windows Mobile emulator image, pushed the resolution up to 800x480, installed GPS Skinner, made a quick skin and this is what you get! A glorious 800x376 pixels of GPS Skinner real estate.

PS We'd love to make the claim that GPS Skinner is the first Windows Mobile application to be ready to go for the X1 but if you know better drop me a line!
