Crossing my fingers. I would love to see the 2.3.7 from Xperia S made available to all Xperia PLAYs (even mine, but doubt it, maybe through the PC Suite) Either way thank you very much nickholtus.

Helloooooooooooooo
I've contacted Sony Support, I am extracting as much as I can lol.

So fare she has no information on the PS Suite. (Edit: She does now, she directed me to the PS Suite Open Beta blog post)

She has denied that we will have an optional update (Bummer, but because UK chat was closed I've contacted US Chat which may be out dated lol)

And she has no details if we will continue to receive firmware updates.

If you should get the same info from anotehr rep @ Sony please confirm it here, that way we can have confirmation from two different users. Not saying I do not believe Nickh post, just confirmation. Thanks!

Thing is we get this kind of information that gets our hopes up high and in the end the result we got from it is NOTHING.


TBH i'm not too sure about the ICS part cause Sony have officially confirmed the Xperia Play wont be getting ICS.

Good work nickholtus! Nice news, hope that'll also happen. IMO, XPlay owners should have the right to decide wether to upgrade or not.

Even without ICS, info about GB updates made me smiling and really happy. And even without ICS, these news are already GOOD!
Fingers crossed! Thanks nickholtus!

I talked to a sony chat rep and the guy was a jackass lol didnt even know what ICS or the Playstation Suite is
EDIT
talked to a new guy this is what he said
"Yes, we intend to release new software updates to the phone, but as for this moment it will not be upgradeable to our latest software ICS4.0"

I would honestly prefer an updated and heavily optimized gingerbread build with an updated kernel than a crippled ics build.

Sounds like the typical BS customer support feed people in order to get them off the line.
I also very much doubt customer support is kept in the know about these kinds of decisions before they're officially announced.

    Wonder how many times you're going to say this? We get it, you don't believe anything Sony says.
