Cool Hunting on the Sony Ericsson Xperia by Josh Rubin
You might have noticed the who is johnny X ads here on CH promoting the European launch of the Sony Ericsson Xperia. In addition to a brilliant screen, handy form-factor and sleek design the Xperia offers users a variety of downloadable home screens. These panels, as they're called, are like interactive desktops and allow immediate access to content and functionality.
Sony Ericsson offers an SDK so that anyone can develop a panel. For Cool Hunting we wanted to give our readers easy access to our latest articles and the ability to search the archives. When the phone is vertical you can see headlines and when it's horizontal you can see thumbnails. If you have an Xperia, download our panel here.
