shiner 18-03-2004, 01:48 PM Well not actually that much news, and certainly no firm release date, but there is a brief overview and nice pic of the Sendo X here :

It's a PDF file - the Sendo X is on page 4
I notice the weight has crept up slightly (120g -> 129g)

pelwell 22-03-2004, 10:52 AM Thanks for the pictures, dragon-tmd.
So, did you like it? Was the screen clear, and the keypad comfortable?
pauleylad 22-03-2004, 10:58 AM Nice pics, got to get one of these phones.
I bet its going to be sometime in May now. Looked at quite a few phone websites and there is hardly any mention of it, even to pre-register interest!!
Did you take any photo's or video with the phone dragon? If so what is the quality like?
Cheers
DAN55 22-03-2004, 11:02 AM i checked with the link and theyve got no idea when/if they are going to get it!? :(
willbrady 22-03-2004, 11:29 AM Yeah, but the link only know what's coming in the day the van turns up!
I remember asking them about the 3650 when that first came out, only to be given a blank stare and don't know answer.
5 days later they were on the shelves :)
DAN55 22-03-2004, 11:32 AM :D
yes, for a phone shop they know remarkably little about the latest stuff
Dangermoose 23-03-2004, 03:08 AM CeBit has come and gone, and no X... I'm disapointed. I'm now being tempted by the evil phone-inna-pda jobbies. Hey ho. Maybe I'll resist and get a 6600. Its been a while since I had a nokia.
Ismail 23-03-2004, 03:25 AM or resist even more to get a 7610;)
dragon-tmd 23-03-2004, 11:03 AM here's one picture & video taken with the X at cebit2004

Screen is clear and keyboard is small but comfortable, but i'm a not "SMS record typer" :)
Here's is my small review posted at my-symbian:
Well ok, i tell you my first impressions from cebit: I played with the X for about 2 hours:
- Software used: Version x3.338 Development (unstable)
Errors and crashes with flash reader & included Pinball game
- videorecorder and camera is slow (needed 5-15 secs to start) - quality was not that good, but could be due to lightningh at the Sendo place
- java engine slow (tested with siberian strike epsiode I)
- Mophun Enginge 2.9 was licensed by Sendo and will be inlcuded! Tested with 3D Rally Contest, worked well
control with the X is hard for gaming, there is no joystick and you
have to get used to this kind of control!!
- MP3 Quality was good BUT NO MP3 ringtones though,
it has two speakers (left and right side) with quite good sound, although the X place was heavily crowded with people and SOUND (Motorolas place was near with a good DJ ...)
All in all the X was mere a protoype than a release version with many bugs (although the software was dated 12.03.04). the handling was nice, BUT IT IS VERY THICK (as the N6600)
The covers of the shown X have been badly produced (they told me they have been hand made), this was NO end user fínish ... although end user hardware has been produced by Sendo!!!
Strange, i would not show somebody a hand made prototype, if i could shown him a end user verion ...
The x will be released "after the cebit and in a few weeks", I DOUBT that it will be released within march 2004, cause the software is more unstable than i stated above
If i didn't already preorder it, i would wait untill the final version will be available to all
- we'll have to see, when and what the X will be ....
DAN55 23-03-2004, 02:23 PM it sounds like it is fortunate that they do self upgrades! :o
Rayman 23-03-2004, 10:19 PM Well they appear to have made no progress at all since December when I was in Sendo for an interview :(.
I'm afraid that, like many people, my money is going elsewhere. I'm sure that eventually they can produce a good phone but I just don't trust them to do it within the next year....
Glad I never took the job, I'd have been stuck with a piece of shite phone like the X if I had :D
DAN55 24-03-2004, 09:01 AM was it for a firmware bug fixer?! :D
Rayman 24-03-2004, 06:46 PM No mate, though it was in NPI (new product introduction)!!! :D The boss apparantly has a habit of recruiting his mates instead of decent engineers which was why I missed out.... I'd have been able to get it into production on time :D:D:D
FloW3184 20-12-2007, 02:14 PM Sorry for taking out this goddamn old thread... but i just bought a Sendo-X from ebay....-my old one was "fallen" against the wall... and since nobody knows sendo-x it was pretty cheap (34€)
so my problem:
The Phone is an "Motorola ESG" Engineering Sample (looks nearly new!) with firmware x3.338 (imei ends with 00000171 - so it seems to be one of the first ever produced :P) and i dont know how to update it...
the *-key at phonestart does not work for booting the phone into firmwareupdate-mode.
is there another way to get the phone to the update screen?
I read about a MMC/SD-Firmwareupdate some years ago but i never found one on the internet...
product number is: 8Y0H - 02170 - 2X000
the x3.338 is verrrrry unstable ... when i have pages open in the NOW!-screen, the menu crashes... so it is unusable.
my last hope is dragon-tmd *g*
he seems to know everything about this phone!
