Sony Ericsson has launched a range of new panels for its flagship smartphone, the Xperia X1. The device which just completed one year of its existence now gets new panels including that of Skype and CNN.
The Skype panel, as expected will offer users one touch access to the calling service and yes, it will function like the desktop version of the application and will tell you details about your friend list and who's online or not. The CNN panel on the other hand will do just what it is designed for: keep you updated with the latest happenings on the news front. It also features CNN's iReport tool for the new trend of citizen journalism. Then there is the Mytopia panel that makes your X1 an online gaming device allowing you to play games against users all over the globe. The On the Road panel offers users direct access music playlists and tracks, navigation tools and for easy call-handling while on the move. All these new panels are expected to be available for download starting next month.
