I don't get it. What's the point of MSN Direct when you already have internet access. I thought MSN Direct was for SPOT devices that use radio signals, am I mistaken?

About time MSN Direct comes on WinMo devices. I can't think of what was holding them up. Though I think it would be better if WinMo came with a more better browser to actually see the real site, instead of the small stuff.

I also don't see much difference between MSN Direct and MSN Mobile - they both practically show the same thing, except Direct is more mobile-friendly. Why not just make them the same?

The Xperia X1 looks amazing. I actually might get one. It's about time mobile phone companies work WITH WinMo, instead of the other way around. It also shows that WinMo is a very versatile and extensible OS for phones.

Having a 3" screen and what looks like decent specs are definitely a step ahead for WinMo phones.
