ST. PETERSBURG, October 23 /PRNewswire/ -- Spb Software, the world's
leading maker of Windows Mobile applications, develops a user interface panel
for Xperia(TM) X1. As part of the strategic partnership between Sony Ericsson
and Spb Software, Spb has put forth a top-notch, Spb Mobile Shell-based
solution that compliments the X1 in both style and speed. Taking advantage of
the smartphone's unique panel technology, impressive hardware and dynamic

"We are very happy to be working with Spb, one of the most respected
Microsoft Windows Mobile software developers in the market," said Mats

unique Xperia Panel user interface."

Mobile user interface, making it more direct, logical, and slick. The first

requirements of in-ROM software, paying a great deal of respect to criteria
such as ROM, RAM, performance, battery life, and stability. Customized and
improved menus of Windows Mobile devices are achieved without any damage to
built-in system features or other third-party software.

comments Yaroslav Goncharov, the Product Manager of Spb Mobile Shell. "With
3D acceleration, the panels are visually appealing for consumers, and at the
same time present new opportunities for the developer community."
