And that's exactly what I've done, I'm using my Sony xPeria x-Performance phone full time now and as list members will know alreayd I've covered quite a bit of ground with this phone in the two or so months I've been using it.

I'd like to mention something which I think will be of particular interest particularly if you'r one of those people who like using a physical keyboard - whether it be wired or Bluetooth - with your phone and that's the physical keyboard configuration settings which can be accessed either through the Notifications panel - probably the easiest way - or by digging into the settings through the Settings App.

One of the options you'll notice is "Shortcuts" and from here you can - as the name suggests - define keyboard shortcuts or see a table of those which have already been predefined for your supposed benefit.

Well I can't deny that some of those I've tried are certainly beneficial and handy.

For example pressing the "Option" key together with the "B" key on the Logitech K480 keyboard I have opens the Chrome browser which is the only browser I have installed on the phone.

Pressing option-e brings up a screen which asks me to define my default eMail App though curiously - even though Aqua Mail is installed its not listed here -.

Pressing option-p brings up a screen for me to define my default Music Player so I defined the Music App thus future presses of Option-P will launch that App.

And so the list goes on.

I'm sure other phones have similar Physical Keyboard configurator utilities of one sort or another and perhaps the ability to add Shortcuts though I don't remember seeing anything like this on the Samsung phones I had.
