[XPERIA X10 General] docbio:
Rachel and I broke up this weekend.

I saw it coming awhile ago, but when it happened it was faster than I expected. Rachel and I started our love affair about 6 months ago. We got along very well, but there were drawbacks to our relationship.

I remember when I first saw her, she looked nearly perfect. She was gorgeous in her sexy black outfit, and tall. But she was only 16. You know how 16 is, sexy as hell and full of promise, a bit of a tease.

I tried to introduced her to a few of my friends; Bluant S4, Vlingo and MBW-150. They liked her well enough but she didn’t fully connect to them. She wouldn't even talk to Vlingo.

There were other problems. Like the fact that she wouldn’t let me touch her multiple times (she hated when I tried to pinch her). She would tire out quickly during the day and have to take a nap to recharge.

I started thinking that I needed to maybe look around for someone older, more mature. Someone maybe 21 or 22. I started flirting with a few others, but nothing serious.

Rachel noticed, and started to make some promises. She asked me to give her some time to mature. “just a few months” she said. “just until October, please.” I waited, giving her the benefit of the doubt. October came, but she hadn’t changed. “I need a little more time”, she said. “give me until the end of the month, November at the latest, December for sure.” By this time, someone else had caught my eye.

Desire wasn’t quite as beautiful as Rachel, but she made up for it in other ways. She was more mature for one thing. She was 21, and about to turn 22. We started flirting, and went out a few times. She loved being touched multiple times, and giggled when I pinched her. She was more outgoing and got along with a lot more people. She would speak with everyone in the market, and introduced me to others that I didn't know. She was happy to meet Bluant S4, and Vlingo, and connected right away with MBW-150. She felt faster and more exciting that Rachel too.

So I took the plunge, and broke it off with Rachel. I wished her the best of luck, hoping that she will mature over the next few months. Will I ever date another Finnish/Japanese girl? I doubt it. They look beautiful, but they all seem to tease rather than please. I think I’m done with them. I’m moving on.

Am I happy with Desire? Sure. But I can’t help but feel that there is something missing. Desire’s more petite than Rachel, not quite as high class. She’s missing a few things that I loved about Rachel. Will things last with Desire? I don't know. I think that maybe she might be my rebound girl.

Desire did show me a picture of her cousin the other day. She’s in Europe right now, but might be coming to North America later this year, or early next. She even has almost the same name as Desire, with a few added initials; Desire HD. She looks hot. Reminds me a lot of Rachel. I could get into her in a heartbeat. :D

But for now, Desire’s my girl and we’re enjoying ourselves.

I want to thank everyone for all of the advise and help I received in this forum. The Xperia X10 was my first Android phone, and you never forget your first.

Please excuse the “farewell post”.

Good luck to all with the 2.1 update, and I hope the devs crack the bootloader so that the updates don’t stop at 2.1.

As an ex-SE fanboy, I really hope that SE gets its act together and starts listening to the dev community. However I really doubt it, which is why the X10 will be my last SE phone.

As for me, I’m moving on to the HTC Desire while I wait for the Desire HD to arrive in Canada. Cheers everyone, see you around. :)
