Does the X10 have a Compass or Proximity Sensor?

[TriC]

I could not find any mention of a compass or proximity sensor for the X10 on specs and reviews for the phone. does anyone know?

I know the x10 Mini has this listed in the spec.. and an FM radio.. but nothing listed for the Normal x10

From what I remember reading, the X10 does not have a proximity sensor.

You can check the X10i manual (10.5MB PDF) if you want to be sure.

Nice..Thanks for the Link.. I looked over that PDF. on page 7 of 94 it does show a Proximity sensor.

And it even has a Light sensor. to auto dim the screen if you want...

Info on page 8

Sensors
Your phone has two built-in sensors – a light sensor and a proximity sensor. The light sensor
is used for automatic LCD backlight control. The proximity sensor turns the touch screen
off when your face touches the screen. This prevents you from unintentionally activating
phone functions when you are engaged in a call.

Its odd that nowhere on the web when you look over the spec's of the phone these things are not listed.. when they are for the Nexus 1.. I was kinda worried for a bit when I could not find anything about this. but yep they are in the X10 manual.

It does, like every smartphone SE released in a year or so.
