New Xperia Panels on the way

// March 24th, 2009 // FEATURED, PANELS, XPERIA X1

The guys over at pocketnow.com have posted a review of the beta versions of the 4 new panels (announced back in feb at MWC.) Not sure they installed 100% properly as the Skype one certainly did more on my X1 when I was testing it. I know a few other bloggers have beta versions for feedback so I’ll update this if / when they post anything.

Also, I noted (thanks to the Xperiancer blog) that there are a couple of new 3rd party panels knocking about.

Wakoopa is a software focussed social network. The panel was built by a guy who goes by the name of Chopinfreak over at XDA developers. I’ve not yet installed it but will up date with my thoughts when I have.

The other panel is really quite cool, it’s similar in some ways to the goldfish panel that ships with the phone but is more interactive and has more functionality. It’s called “Growing” and seems to use some kind of flash. The instructions to install it are a little complicated (well, you need to install 2 cabs) and links to them both can be found here.

If anyone stumbles across any more panels leave a link in the comments and I’ll update this.

    actually i have a prob with the cnn panel…it doesn´t show up in the panel list. my x1 is swedish, and i remember i had a prob with youtube and had to rename a file under windows.
    ps: program files are called ´program´ could that maybe be the reason ?

    @x1_Id0u The versions available at the moment are only beta – the final panels will be uploaded later this month. I’ll post when the finished things are available.

    There’s an X1 messaging panel from uiggmo software selling on ebay at the moment. Search for “X1 Messaging Panel”.

    Hi guys & gals

    I’m trying to find where I can change the city on Sony Ericsson Panel 2. I can’t find Cape Town, South Africa. Does anybody know how to change the city to Cape Town?
