Nokia X3 Gets Approved By the FCC, Launch Imminent?
This is the US FCC filing so maybe it'll launch with a carrier, but it might not. If it doesn't it shouldn't be too expensive since we heard that it'll launch for just €115 ($169 USD) in Europe. Check out the FCC filing here.

Verizon Stores Opening At 7 or 8 In the Morning On November 6th For DROIDs -- Opening At Midnight In New York
Update on November 4th: According to Mobile Crunch, a limited amount of Verizon Wireless stores will be opening at midnight until 2 a.m. (on November 6th) to sell the DROID as well.
As far as we’ve confirmed so far, there’s only one store doing the midnight sale, and it’s right in the heart of New York. If you’re anywhere near the store (located at 134 W 34TH St, New York), go get your camping gear ready; there’s nothing like getting the object of your desire at midnight, excitedly playing with it for 2 minutes, and then caving to the utter exhaustion that standing out in the freezing cold midnight air will cause.

Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 Gets Officially Announced, Coming First Half of 2010.
The sad part about all of this news is that it'll be available in the first half of 2010, which is slightly different from the Q1 2010 launch that I was hoping for. We'll have to wait quite a while for this, but there's always something you can do in the meantime. Check out this Engadget link to see their hands-on of the handset.
Update: There's now a video below of the XPERIA X10, courtesy of Phandroid. Below the video you'll find the complete spec sheet. It'll likely ship with Android 2.0 though.
