I dont really understand Sony's policy about software , you're creating a new phone which relaesed in feb 2012 and the most current software is ice cream sandwich and the phone comes with gingerbread , it sounds like you creating a high end notebook and it comes with vista ,

you sucks Sony , believe me I'm telling this just buying Xperia S a few hours ago .

even though u sucks , u dont destroy my feelings about sony

Here's your choice.
1.Be the first that has ICS.
2.Wait 2 more months and get a fully optimised ICS, totally optimised for your phone. That probably runs better than a HTC or Samsung on ICS with the same specs.

btw ICS isn't a super drastic update or something, you're acting like it's the difference between Window 3.11 and Windows 7.
Old Phone: HTC Hero, White
New Phone: Sony Xperia S, Black

We'll just have to hope that they work hard optimising it.. I prefer a delayed optimised ICS than a crappy worthless update

I totally get what you say, but you don't want to wait for ages to put an outdated but optimized OS on your phone? I hope for some BETA tester ROM release from Sony on Xperia S forum as well.
