Hayabusa is confirmed to have 8960 chipset with Mint despite all the rumors. So that's confirmed. I know people will ask why not Pro version and such. I don't know. 
It will have microSD card slot now. IMO, I'm starting to feel like they will now use the "arc HD" for this device Though I could be wrong, just IMO.

thank god they keeping to Snapdragon chips!!!
thanks for the info!
This has to be a good thing. The One X shows just how many apps (including Tegra3 optimised stuff) that hasn't been updated to position the three dots properly. With hundreds of thousands of apps, the One X set up is quite annoying because some developers may take ages (if ever) to update.

Then what's the Xperia duo?
Not worth it then. We would have only few hours to play with it;-)

We woluldn't even have time to use DoomKernel for Hayabusa
But at least, you can use ICS on the remaining time and in few short hours, you won't notice any yellow tint on screen. With all that in mind, maybe Doomlord does a pre-release kernel....after all he loves us as we do back.
I know it's kinda off topic, but someone is planning to port AOKP to Xperia S?

I really hope they are getting close to a final release
This would really boost the Xperia S community & probably the sales 2 - Status

29Apparently, you do not want this thread to remain open.
And I do not want to hear anyone saying I am unfair because even though yesterday I posted this:
I let the thread grow 10 pages of chat-like posts repeating over and over the exact same speculations and decided I would let you guys kill some time until the update.
(I've been an X10 user dying to get Gingerbread and then an Arc S user waiting for an ICS update. I know how torturing the waiting can be and how it can get to anyone's nerves. Whether we admit it or not, our mobile phones become a big part of our lives, that is why most of us are here anyway.)
But opening this thread today and seeing personal attacks between members is not something I can let slip. You proved that you cannot keep a low-key discussion and I am not willing to keep cleaning up after you.
Thread closed.23A comprehensive FAQ for a concerned ICS zealot
The text in italics is unconfirmed or doubted information
Q: When is ICS being released?
A: Q2 2012. That is the second three months, i.e. April, May and June.
Q: Why is it taking so long?
A: Because the Xperia S was released in the process of the Sony/Ericsson merger. They are still working on integration between the teams and much more that needs to be done.
Q: Any chance we get it earlier?
A: Yes, starting from this week (05/21/12) to early June.
Q: When does <country> get it?
A: The rollout usually starts in Nordic countries (Sweden, homeland of Ericsson) and then continues when local carrier testing is passed. However once it's out in Sweden, someone will surely upload a flashable FTF for us all to enjoy
Q: Any chance we see a leaked build?
A: Not from me. If anyone else wants to leak it, you're welcome.
Q: What's the version?
A: Android 4.0.4 with kernel 3.0.8. Sony build is 6.1.A.0.3xx or 4xx.
Q: Will it have face unlock?
A: Yes.
Q: Will it have <any other feature here>?
A: The feature set is close to ICS for 2011 devices, but there will be some goodies.
Q: Is battery life any good?
A: Really good, better than .73.
Q: Do we have any factual proof?
A: See the proof list below.

PM me if I missed anything (or just ask in the thread again) and please, don't quote this post ever.13it seem to me that only names have changed from sony ericsson to sony but all old lazy empty head basters stay where as it was before where are those blady reduction jobs they taking ****ing wages and keep chairs warm getting fat.
sorry for wording
With that efficiency they can only dream about increase profit and market share
btw end of the Q2 is end of june ? so eventually we got only two weeks delay so is not too bad
They want and are able to increase profits and market share. Things are changing for Sony and inside Sony. They're not lazy, they are busy upgrading your grandma's Xperia pro. Not a single other manufacturer delivered updates for every previous generation device, even budget dumbphones. Sony did, or at least they are working to do it. Sony is the biggest AOSP contributor after Google itself. Sony pushes the new Xperia lineup aggressively and I've already seen a whole bunch of people switch to the S and the P, some of them ditching their iPhones. Sony hires highly qualified engineers and software developers, not some 'old lazy empty head basters'. I'm not being a fanboy here, the only company I'm a fanboy of is Studio Ghibli. I'm just trying to make you all understand the good things. The Galaxy S is not getting ICS. The Xperia active is. Because they ducking care for you. Because the universe doesn't end with the Xperia S. Because there are more people with 2011 Xperia devices who want to get ICS. Because there are people with 2011 Samsung devices that never will. Because you, yes you, are f-wording the people who care for you.
If anyone from Sony is reading it: sadly, the only thing that's expressed publicly about you is whine and insults. I feel sorry for this and for the state of XDA in general. We don't post love letters here, but we are thankful for all the work you've done. We care about you and we understand you don't owe us anything. Take your time, make it perfect and watch the whine turn into love.
