A new video has just been spotted over on YouTube claiming to be a brochure leak for the upcoming Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 (Rachael). We had previously thought this device would be called the X3, but if this video proves true we can now call the device the X10.  In either case on November 3rd the device code named ‘Rachael’ will be unveiled to the world in a Sony Ericsson Press Event.  I guess now would be the appropriate time to start taking bets, is it going to be the X3 or the X10?

Following the footsteps of Motorola, Sony Ericsson is expected to being parting ways with Windows Mobile in favor of the newer and arguable better Android OS.  Sure at DroidFanatic we might be biased in our ways, but honestly after a batched Windows Mobile 6.5 launch filled with lackluster features what exactly are people waiting for from Microsoft to warrant giving the OS another shot?  According to our friends at CoolSmartPhone, Sony Ericsson is expected to begin their Android assualt on November 3rd according to a new site setup by the manufacturer: http://www.sonyericsson.com/whatsnext/

What is interesting about this landing page is that the link embedded on the site directs you to http://www.sonyericsson.com/?cid=son_rachael_global_20091026 but of course that link is not active yet and probably will remain that way until the November 3rd announcement.  Luckily we’ve become very familiar with the device codenamed Rachael, Sony Ericsson Xperia X3, but we were under the impression that the device would not be launched until January of 2010.
