Anyone else get one of these yet? I've been holding out for a smartphone and I finally broke down and got one of these :P
Gotta say it's not too bad so far, all things considered! On top of all the regular Experia functionality, it's got the slide down controller built in, with Playstation Style buttons (Triangle, Square, Circle, X, L, R) No L2 or R2 though.
It also has analog touch sticks which I haven't really tried yet. Pretty neat tho! I'm still getting used to it but I DLed a couple of emulators for it (the Tiger NES and SNES ones) and lo and behold they have mappable keys so you can map the controller instead of using the onscreen virtual ones....very very handy! NES and SNES run smooth as silk on it and with the controllers....well....for a phone it's pretty nice.
It also has surprisingly loud stereo sound, to the point where I actually turned it down cause it was TOO loud.
It comes with a bunch of games built in (nothing too exciting...but Crash Bandicoot is on there), and defaults from the main screen to a gaming sub-menu with all your Play games when you open the controller.
According to the phone rep, Sony is planning on linking the Playstation network with the Play network and you'll be able to link accounts, allowing you to DL any PS1 games you've bought on the PS Network onto your phone as well. A nice bonus IMO.
All in all, a pretty damned cool smartphone for gamers! I'm pretty impressed so far with it!
