One of the X2's big advances over the Sendo X is the amount of free RAM which it has available for applications - the X had a measly 4MB available, but on the X2 this has been doubled to a far more usable 8MB, enough for even the most power hungry of applications. " 

"The X2 comes with three highly addictive games - the familiar Funny Farmer and Pinball games from the X, and the new, incredibly fun Zombies game. In Zombies you have to shoot and kill some very ugly blue skulls which, if left to their own devices, will happily murder you. Where Zombies gets really fun though is that you move around (to shoot the zombies) by turning the phone left, right, up, down etc. You actually look through the camera while shooting those pesky zombies, and the best way to play the game is on a wheelie chair in the middle of the office. You'll have great fun "shooting" all your colleagues, and they'll have great fun thinking how much of an idiot you look!"

"The Sendo X2 has only two external sockets on the bottom of the phone. One is the headphone and handsfree socket, and the other one a mini-USB socket which is used to transfer data to the phone and also charges the handset, either directly from a PC or from a wall socket, via the suplied converter.  While this is a much more elegent solution to the charging / data transfer issue, it does mean that the X2 is not compatible with some X accessories, such as Sendo's excellent folding keyboard or their desktop sync station. (although it is still possible to charge an X2 battery in the sync station)" On the plus side, bluetooth keyboards work excellently with the X2."

The Ugly:
So, with all that's great about the X2, what could possibly be considered ugly in such a fine handset? one thing - it's speakers. Early X2 photos showed a nice silver mesh over the speaker holes - unfortunately this now seems to have been dropped from the handsets, leaving a dark hole in the casing. It's a small thing, but it does make the handset look slighly un-finished.

Conclusion:
Following Sendo's demise, the X2 is never going to be released. None of us general public are ever going to find out how nice (or otherwise) the handset is to use. Those of us who have been lucky enough to use an X2 know just how much of a disappointment this is - the X2 is a truly excellent phone, which would have really put Sendo on the map, right back at the top of the smartphone market.

Our only hope now is that Motorola pick up on some of the technologies in the X2 and put them to use in future handsets. Motorola bought all the intelectual property and patents for the X2 and also bought up the entire team who created the X2. With this in mind, let's hope that "Team Sendo", now working with the backing of the mighty Motorola, can produce a handset which includes all the great features of the X2, along with Motorola's design and build technologies.  How would you like a handset, based on UIQ3, with a decent camera, in a case the size of a RAZR V3, with the excellent Now! screen? - you would? - get in line behind me!
