main problem of this device, is the lack of large internal flash memory |

microSD = good ... so much cheaper and easier to find than M2 sticks
PK or anyone else, do you know what ports are on the X1? Charger/accessory port we're used to from SE or something new? Dedicated (3.5mm) audio jack or standard all-in-one port on the bottom?
Anyone see any info about what processor X1 is running? |
