Click here for first picture in gallery.
A custom-formed fuel-cell stack sits up front, while the battery pack resides somewhere near the middle, just ahead of the electric motor. Behind that motor sit two storage tanks for the hydrogen fuel.

Adrian Covert provides us with a hands-on look at Sony Ericsson’s $800 Xperia X1 Smartphone, which features a 2.8-inch touchscreen display, 3.2-megapixel camera, 528-MHz processor, 256MB RAM, and a PS3/PSP style interface. Click here for first picture in gallery.
To be blunt, the Xperia X1 isn’t quite up to snuff with the top smartphones in the market from an overall standpoint. Whether you’re speaking about its $800 price tag, stylus-based resistive touchscreen or 3.2 MP camera, this is a phone that would have fared better amongst early adopters a year or two ago.
