For the price of either, you could have a DSLR.

For me the Nikon 1 J1 10.1 MP HD Digital Camera System with 10-30mm VR 1 NIKKOR Lens is the clear winner. I can give you number of reasons for that. I can compare the two for you in details.

Advantages of the Nikon J1 over X10:

1. Records high-speed movies 1, 200 fps vs None
2. Shoots much faster 60 fps vs 10 fps
3. Faster autofocus Phase detection vs Contrast detection
4. Many more focus points 135 vs 49
5. Faster video autofocus Phase detection vs Contrast detection
6. Larger screen 3, 0" vs 2, 8"
7. Smaller 106x61x29 mm vs 117x70x57 mm
8. Has interchangeable lenses Yes vs No
9. Better image quality 56.0 vs 50.0
10.Better color depth 21, 5 bits vs 20, 5 bits
11.Thinner 1, 2" vs 2, 2"
12.Lower noise at high ISO 372 ISO vs 245 ISO
13.Larger sensor 1" 13.2x8.8mm vs 1/1.7" 8.8x6.6mm
14.Lighter 277 g vs 350 g
15.Faster max shutter speed 1/16000s vs 1/4000s

A couple of things that the X10 has and the J1 does not are:

1. Has in-camera HDR Yes vs No
2. Can create panoramas in-camera Yes vs No
3. Supports an external flash Yes vs No

Still Nikon J1 is the better choice.
