I have an X1, and although it's a great phone, at this point I wouldn't suggest getting a Windows Mobile based phone.
The X1's hardware is great, but Windows Mobile is a dying OS which was originally intended for old PDAs, and it still feels like that, meaning a lot of the UI was just meant to be used with a stylus. You can get all kinds of fancy shells which make it more bearable, but there's only so much you can cover up with a 3rd party shell. And UI can still be incredibly slow. Besides that applications being developed for it isn't anything like for Android or iPhone.
There is a new Windows Mobile version coming up which attempts to get rid of the PDA feel, but I doubt if they'll succeed. And most likely you wouldn't be able to upgrade your Windows Mobile phone to a newer version of the OS.
My contract doesn't end for a while, but I think my new phone would be an Android.
