The person who designed the hps left hp and went to dell. So that explains why it looks like an hp.

I don't think it is at all possible that Alex Gruzen could have any affect upon the X50. He just got there.

Well, it's a lil hard to tell from even the large image, and it may still very well be a mockup for promotional purposes, but screen image on there seems to indicate a QVGA screen. Look at the windows logo/Start button at the top left, it's got the blocky pixellated look of the QVGA screens that was gone in the VGA ones.

Granted, as I said, it could be a mockup, or not a final or real image yet.

Well, the date in the Today screen image suggests that part (at least) is a Photoshop job.

pretty much all the LCD images are photoshopped or at least digitally applied because LCD's don't look very good in real pictures. And of course this is how you see advertisements for palms running Windows Mobile 2003 or vice versa in retailer catalogs.

But the picture might be QVGA, because there's suppose to be 3 tiers of the X50 accrording to the rumors.

not to mention its running nonse(look at the start button)

its safe to say, this image was not, in its entireity, taken with a camera.

also, notice how it says x50 on the bottom, it should say pocketpc like all the other dells.

Check out the top above the LCD.. right in the middle on the inset panel. There is a little button there.. in the same place as the power button on the Image posted here in this thread. Also all the buttons and the overall case layout are exactly the same position.

Looks real to me.

Actually it doesn't look like a real Dell device because of not ugly enough. It looks nice.
I agree with Fish, this Dell is ugly! And its not because a HP guy joined Dell that this looks 'pretty'. HTC just took the h19xx platform and upgraded it. But the h4150 is much prettier.
