Android 2.1 update now available for AT&T Xperia X10 and everyone knows that Eclair is way better than vanilla Froyo. The ndroid 2.1 upgrade will be available for AT&T Xperia X10 customers in the US starting Tuesday, May 31st……….

The relevance of the phone always comes into question due to it seemingly running a outdated version of it’s native supported OS and at one point the X10 was running Android 1.6 while the rest if the world on Android moved on with Froyo. The news of the 2.1 although underwhelming does offer the last form of light for the series and as it seems to be the last update to put end users out of there misery. To really explain how out of touch Sony Ericsson PR seems to be, they have seemed to been caught suggesting that Froyo isn’t needed due to there version of Eclair being in many instances ” just as good” ( Insert laugh ). This update effects all iterations of the X10 series in what had been a bunch of letdown and one of the worst handling of software support for the end user. Hopefully, the X11/12 series and beyond can never repeat these mistakes and sweeten the bitter taste of there fan base currently behind two versions of Android.
