Vodafone Delays Sony Ericsson XPERIA X2 Until January; It's a Sad Day.
This news really sucks and I hope the XPERIA X10 doesn't get delayed as well... but you never know.

A Bunch of HTC Android Codenames Have Just Been Leaked
Someone has been clever to look into the HTC Hero's recent Android 2.1 ROM and the OS actually has some hidden meaning to it. If you look deep into the code, it actually has a list of all the upcoming codenames for future Android handsets from HTC themselves. The list is below, and it should be enough for a satisfying 2010 launch for you HTC and Android fans. MWC 2010 looks to be a big event.
“Bahamas, Bravo, DesireC, Dragon, Dream, Espresso, Halo, HeroCT, HeroC, Hero, Huangshan, Incredible, Legend, Liberty, Memphis, Paradise, PassionC, Passion, Sapphire, Supersonic.”

Nokia Throws Out Sneak Peek About What Symbian Could Look Like In 2010
Nokia is not looking to change the OS per say, but they are definitely cooking up ways to fix the UI. They're going to improve the browser, bump up the scrolling to 60fps (only 15fps currently), and they're going to try to make the UI 3 times faster. It'll be simpler and faster to get to more important things that you'll need (for example: less touching for your fingers to get to your favourite song).
Check out the Engadget link below for a video on this "magical" UI. Of course, it's a work in progress.

HTC Touch.B Running Qualcomm's Brew Mobile OS, Not Android. Caught On Video
Update: At this point, the UI is pretty simple with a bit of HTC's own TouchFLO. It'll reportedly have a 2MP camera (with no video recording capabilities) and 3G / Bluetooth support. No WiFi on this sucker though. This handset is expected to launch in early 2010 and will be an entry-level device. However, there is Adobe Flash support, which makes things interesting. Check out the video below for a short teaser on the simple UI.

Amazon and Dell USA Now Selling the Nokia N97 Mini For $480
Update: According to GSM Arena, Dell is selling it for $580 USD. But, you'll still be able to get it for $480 if you have a coupon.
At Dell you can get it for the same price with a coupon - the first one we stumbled upon in Google is WQDQBPXNHCZFVG (expires December 10th 2009). This gives you 100 dollars off the list price arriving at pretty much the same price as at Amazon.
