Sony Ericsson has just launched the latest panels for the X1, teaming up with Facebook and Microsoft Windows Live. The new Facebook panel built for Sony Ericsson lets users check friends' statuses, upload photos and access Facebook friends list and phone numbers with click-to-call capabilities. As you touch to view different information, icons and links change to give you one touch access to the information you're likely to use.
The Windows Live panel uses existing Windows Live ID to sync contacts held in the phone's phonebook, and the panel will provide access to a Microsoft messenger interface, including Hotmail and Live Messenger. The panel will also give users access to the Windows Live Search function, which is tailored to mobile phones and can be voice activated and controlled. Other Windows Live services will be incorporated into the panel throughout the year.
The Dashwire panel seamlessly synchronizes the phone and the content it captures with a user's computer and the Web. Dashwire's free service helps users automatically sync the contacts, text messages, photos, videos, calls and settings from their phones to a private cloud-based account. Users can also send text messages from the Web, and share their photos and videos with friends and social sites like Facebook, Flickr, Twitter, FriendFeed and Bebo.
The Facebook, Windows Live and Dashwire panels are available for free download via the phone's on-board downloader and from the Sony Ericsson website. Check out our full review of the Xperia X1 here.
