That's excellent news for the owners and great for SE to keep supporting their phones.
Are the txt and txt pro Android? I thought they weren't.

@Dups!: those aren't Android phones. Their GUI looks like Android.
@adsada: no, I'm not.

I knew they would, but glad to get confirmation. After the X10 mess SE simply cannot afford to f-up in terms of updates, I simply cannot wait to see how Ice Cream Sandwich will run as it will take advantage of the Graphics Accelerator in all Androids for the GUI, so it should be very fluid.

Shouldn't it be 5.3.x?

News update from
somobile:
Update: Sony Ericsson has told us that the company has made no official decision to update its 2011 Xperia phones to Android 4.0 – despite the comments from a Sony Ericsson representative at a London press event yesterday. Still, here’s hoping…
Here’s the official statement: “When it comes to future platforms of the Android OS, we will make them available to consumers in a timely manner, as long as they improve the user experience and are viable from a hardware point of view.“
