Default XPERIA X1 Coming to France mid-October for 700 Euros?

Quote:
French site Mobinaute is reporting that David Mignot, Sony Ericsson-France marketing director has announced that the XPERIA X1 is coming to France on mid-October. The price of the X1 is expected to be 700 Euros (about $1085) outside the carrier. At an open-line price of $1000, would you still get one?

I would expect it to drop to around 850 USD by Christmas of this year. It's still a hefty price to pay considering competition probably will be significantly cheaper.

SE had to make it more expensive than the C905 "Shiho" instead of making the C905 cheaper. Go figure.

I think it might be $700 because normally Euro prices are the same numerical value as their U.S. counterparts. Also I'm very sure that the US will get he x1 in September because of the handango announcement and also because European releases usually come after American.

I agree completely.

Even if it does carry the same numerical value as the European launch, there is absolutely NO way Sony Ericsson can justify even a $500 price point, simply because everyone wants an iPhone now and it only costs $200.
