anyone got pics of the vivaz pro successor??
what do you guys think are going to be the differences between the x10 mini successor and the vivaz successor
is it going to be mainly just the size and resolution of the screens? since mini successor also records HD
anyone know if these devices also have Exmor and Bravia technologies?

So good to read some sensible posts, and zub is a real "tech freak" unlike some other that change their mind every two days...
I must add that HTC is going to shake high as this UI from SE is not far from the HTC one in term of quality and far better than the korean's one, note coments about motoblur (wrost than any other), So the objective of 15% of the android 2011 market share should be a piece of cake regarding to the portofolio of the first half.

anyone other than me that reflected over the placement of the 3,5mm jack on the top side? Not that optimal if you keep the phone in your pocket with a headset connected

I had to chime in on the XPERIA Arc. Despite its lack of "high-end" specs the design looks fantastic. I don't know they chose the placement of the 3.5mm Jack though. Also, shipping with Gingerbread is a huge advantage and decoupling Timescape and Mediascape from the software is another improvement D it will allow them to deliver software updates more quickly. I think the Arc will be very popular. Hopefully Sony Ericsson can ship quickly and quickly deliver platform updates as they are made available by Google.
The XPERIA Play to me is still a head scratcher though. I thought they would've pushed the tech limit a bit more on that handset (assuming the rumours are true). But I will wait until its strategy is announced at MWC before making final judgement.

"
SO-01C: Xperia・Android
SO-02C: Xperia・Windows Phone 7"
where are this two phones? especially WP7 one....
i don`t think that SO-01C is Xperia Arc... if it is, why the other ones aren`t mentioned? (Hallon, x10 mini/mini pro successos) they aren't for Japanese market?
only the Xperia Arc will be also available in Japan... like the X10, which was the first SE phone to be available globally including Japan...
and if im not wrong SEMC and SEMC Japan are two different things
from the PR
Sony Ericsson Xperia™ arc will be available globally in selected markets, including Japan, from Q1 in the colours Midnight Blue and Misty Silver.

For any one that thinks 2.4 is Honeycomb, I just can't get this in my mind !!
AFAIK 2.4 is just a little update to 2.3, both will have the exact same codename of Gingerbread, just like Eclair and 2.0 and 2.1
if you remember the 3.0 UI video that is well popular in youtube in the last days, that clearly says 3.0 is Honeycomb... I know this is not official... but... I donno
any way, for the Honeycomb and tablet thing and the confirmation that Arc will be updated to Honeycomb, I think that Honeycomb will have two UI versions for tablets ( big screens ) and phones ( small screens ), you may call it Android 3.0 Tablet Edition
I just don't get the idea of having two seperated software path for just UI layer change and some high-end hardware change too, while every thing else is nearly same.. I mean phones will have tablet hardware later anyway !! who thought about having 1GHz or dual-core phones just before several years ago !!

IT's not about whiners its about those being apologetic for SE.
1. "dual-core snapdragons probably weren't ready in time for CES."
- Oddly enough, if you search, there are MANY press releases about Qualcomm in early 2010 stated that they'd HAVE a dual-core Snapdragon ready. Well they where caught bluffing and with their pants down.

Qualcomm's current 1GHz Snapdragon is the muscle that makes the Nexus One so fantastically speedy, but Qualcomm isn't sitting on their laurels—they just announced two new chips that are going to power the next great mobile devices.
First up is the single-core Snapdragon 8X50A, a 45nm chip that's essentially the next version of the 1GHz chip in the Nexus One. It's clocked at 1.3GHz. But what we're really excited about is the dual-core 8X72, which uses two Scorpion cores to achieve 1.5GHz. Luis Pineda, Senior VP at Qualcomm, assures that the 8X72 is suitable for smartphones (not just smartbooks or netbooks) and can handle 1080p video. Both the 8X50A and 8X72 will be out this year, going head to head with the Tegra 2.

Oh yeah baby, Qualcomm's finally shipping its first dual-core Snapdragons. To whom, is the big question. Its third-generation Mobile Station Modem MSM8260 and MSM8660 Snapdragon chipsets for high-end smartphones -- originally announced in February 2009 -- are now sampling and capable of running at up to 1.2GHz. The MSM8260 supports HSPA+, while the MSM8660 brings support for multi-mode HSPA+ and 1xEV-DO Rev. B. Both integrate GPS, a GPU with 2D / 3D acceleration engines for Open GL ES 2.0 and Open VG 1.1, 1080p video encoding and decoding, a dedicated low-power audio engine, and support for 24-bit WXGA 1,280 x 800 pixel displays. Anybody at Computex care to step forward with a reference design?
Update: We just spoke with company representatives here at the show, and try as we may, we couldn't convince anyone at the company to show off a dual-core reference design. We were flat-out told that the only people at Computex getting a glimpse at the new silicon were prospective customers, though we did manage to pry out a few interesting details about the chip itself and the future of the line. For one, these new chips have two application cores and a single modem core, whereas existing chips have a single application core alongside a single modem core. We were also told in no uncertain terms that an even quicker version of the Snapdragon would be launched before the year's end, and as you'd likely surmise, it'll be aimed at "larger screen" devices -- you know, like slates and tablet PCs.

The good news for those who are awaiting Qualcomm to ship 1.2 GHz Snapdragon devices is that those chips are set to go for a Q1 release in 2011. The bad news is that the more advanced dual-core Snapdragon chipsets are delayed until late 2011.
While Qualcomm was among the first to market with its single-core 1 Ghz processor, the company seems to be lagging behind competitors. NVIDIA has demonstrated multi-core chipsets and the company's Tegra 2 chips are slated for LG smartphones. Additionally, Samsung has recently announced its dual-core Orion CPU. Both Orion and Tegra 2 promises up to 5X the graphics capabilities of current solutions.
The writing was on the WALL.
Yes its about relationships - HTC primarily is most likely hurt the MOST. The key point here is the FLAGSHIP smartphone for the 1st half of 2011 in the USA & Europe is NOT an HTC device but a Motorola (Atrix 4G) using a competing & PROVEN chipset … Tegra 2. I say proven because Audi has already begun using Tegra 2 in their 2011 car-lineup as the core of their MMI system (Music, Climate, Navigation, and smart control system) - and their the BEST manufacturer in the auto industry that ships a proper in-car solution.
