The touch is very responsive and a lot smoother after removing the shatter proof tape

I don't suppose anyone knows when stock ICS is going to be ready for us do they?

Early May? Ridiculous. I guess the best thing to hope now is that the new Nexus comes before that. I mean, Sony are even saying they think we should consider not updating to ICS.

I thought I would get more than a year of feeling like my phone was cutting edge from my Arc. Oh well!

Late May Early June is the newest date I just read on the blog.
I think I may just go on xda and use a ported Arc S Rom before then.

That's not what they say (or at least mean to say). Please read again, especially the last part (quoted below).
We we would like to clarify that above mentioned “challenges” have already been addressed by our SW engineering teams. For instance, we have not only optimised the RAM management by making the RAM usage for internal apps as good as possible, but we will also introduce a Performance assistant at start up when running ICS. In this Performance assistant, you can enable and disable certain services that you might not want to run on your phone, in order to optimise the performance of your phone.
We have also worked with quite a few partners in regards to architecture optimisations for SQL handling. In addition, we have also optimised the hardware usage. And as a result of this article, a number of app developers have notified us that they are evaluating if HW optimisation will be needed or not for their apps.
The aim of this article was to share our knowledge regarding the different characteristics for ICS and Gingerbread in an open way, as we strive to have an open communication with the developer community. All in all, we would like to point out that it’s our clear aim to deliver an as good ICS update as ever possible. As you might have seen on the Sony Xperia Product Blog, we’re not far from releasing it now. Thanks for all the feedback!

It's cool that they updated the original article, or at least issued a new blog post to address the feedback to the original article. But in the first one they did make it sound like users should think very carefully about upgrading to ICS, which does not inspire confidence or joy.

This is not more different than when you upgrade Windows on your PC to a brand new version. Windows 7 had more features than XP when it came, but at same time was also more unstable and required a couple of updates before it gradually stabilized. Probably same with 4.0 and that's why you get the option to upgrade "now" or wait a while.
