The Sony Ericsson C-510 is an entry-level phone while the Xperia X1 is a smartphone running Windows Mobile.

The C510 looks sweet. I'm not too sure about that WinMo phone. It really looks dated and clunky. I can't see many people shelling out $600 for it. You are right about the Sony-Ericsson phones in general. I had one a year or two ago and it was great.
