There's no word on pricing yet but with Vodafone's previous form of being a tad pricey don't expect it to be a bargain. But what will you get for your buck?

Running on Android 1.6 (a 2.0 update will come along later) with a 1.6GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon processor, the X10 is expected to be a speedy powerhouse. Ericsson has also added a pair of new menu overlays; Mediascape and Timescape and a best-in-class camera at 8.1-megapixels.

Not bad for a first Android effort we think. With 2010 shaping up to be a year of Android-powered comeback kids, do you think Sony Ericsson can steal the march on the HTC trailblazers? Let us know below.
