So is Nozomi the natural successor to Arc and Aoba to Neo?
Going on the names alone I'd have put them the other way around (Arc => Aoba and Nozomi => Neo).
I'd like to see Sony keep the Xperia name for their mobile division, but I wouldn't bet on it, I would guess we can expect an entire rewrite with somethings going sooner than others.
I'd also love for Sony to keep the Xperia name, would also be very nice for them to keep the UI cause it has evolved into one excellent UI IMO.
I suspect they may actually keep the Xperia name if closing the Xperia blog is any indication.

Sony should buy WebOS. I can see possibilties there.
Relying on Google too much can never be a good thing in the long term.
I know their revenues have been taking a hit for years but this is an investment worth risking a few million dollars on.

I think SONY would love to but they had a heavily lost and buy out 50% in
so it not really soon.

I'm pretty sure we will se 1 or 2 SE phones with ST-Ericsson SoC under the hood! They would mainly be midrange dual core phones.
I think It will be a reasonable device but not most powerful among general dual core competitors, possibly a stop-gap dual core while waiting for real SONY device, I hope
will optimized them in style!

buying webOS would be a poor investment. webOS is a great platform, but it has very little developer support. android is alive and growing because google made it easy and accessible for developers to create apps. I would never get a webOS phone simply cause there aren't many apps for it.
i think sony should stick with android. modify it however to make the user experience even better or just LOOK better (though ICS looks pretty nice as is...). I would prefer sony spent their time and money coming up with ways to pack in the best hardware into the sexiest looking housing. I'd be happy with a vanilla ICS on a sexy sony phone with blazing speed, a rockin screen, and a camera that made regular P&S's cry.

Sony will stick with android. They've already spent a lot of time developing android into their devices and the flexibility of it is unparalleled in the mobile OS world. There is no need for Sony to start to confuse it's customers by offering several OS options when they're trying to create a uniform platform/interface/experience that spans all their products.
On a side note:
Is the 2012 thread due soon? It's usually about now it's getting prepared, no?

I suppose the Sony Ericsson/ Sony 2012 portfolio would be more appropriate for the whole of 2013.
As for Sony buying webOS,I personally feel they would do themselves a lot of good. Sure, there are not many apps for the OS but with Sony's wealth of experience and sub-brands they could find a solid solution to the problem.
Of course, their recent record is suspicious but I am sure they could do it with enough effort.
Android is going to reach a point of oversaturation and with too many players it will be extremely tough for Sony that is essentially 'starting out'. They need their own os IMO.
I remember Bert saying if SE had the money they would buy webOS, well, Sony can raise that money even in their not so sound financial situation.

I agree with Dups regarding WebOS, for the simple reason that it would be wise not to gamble on just the one OS and to at least try and introduce an alternative. Isn't HTC considering it's own?
The ongoing litigation battles with Android don't present a 100% secure outlook.

Agree also, maybe together with another manufacturer, HTC perhaps. Android will be overpopulated with chinese and korean manufacturers, cheap and good specs. WebOS is easily one of the better OSes out there IMO.
