Xperia Gets “Latest Software Development Look”

The Sony Ericsson Xperia is oh so close to release and we’ve seen the hardware over and over for almost a year, but in this video, Arne from The Unwired takes a closer look at the Xperia Software stack which is pretty close to what will actually ship.

Arne has taken control of the interwebz and you’ll actually have to visit The Unwired site for a look at the 16 minute video overview: Xperia Overview Vid

The video isn’t all that exciting but it does give us a more current view of the “panel” interaction and the Xperia’s latest software builds seem to have greatly improved the speed and functionality. Near the end of the video he uses the full QWERTY slide out keyboard to type something into the web browser and it looks painfully uncomfortable and awkward, but Arne says this isn’t the most up to date hardware and they physical keys have improved since this build.

If they were able to improve the hardware as well as they have the software, we’ll all be in for a treat. One sad little note… no accelerometer.
