Sony Ericsson XPERIA X1 users should also take into consideration the fact that performing the update to v1.03.936.6 ROM will install the latest firmware release on their devices although some error messages are reported to appear in the process. At the same time, usual precautions like backing up all data on the handset should be taken, so that no personal files or important information on the phone is lost.
From what we've heard, the guys at XDA Developers are working on finding out what has been updated with this release, and they are reported to have mentioned Opera and WiFi connections. US users have been pointed towards the file that they should be looking for due to the fact that there are a lot of language options that might mess things up a little.
