Sony Ericsson Says Xperia Software Update Starts Sunday
2.1???
Of course, anyone who just bought anything running 1.6 probably ought to have their head examined, but that's another story.

there are really very low percentage of people that care what software is in a phone. Most people dont care about the software in the phone at all or care if it gets 2.2 or not. 2.2 does not make it a better phone by the way..I have a galaxy s phone and very happy with it..have 2.1 and awaiting for 2.2...but only people that care about updates it tech junkies...
I'd imagine Android users are a little more techie than your average phone user. But yeah, the general populace doesn't care about software, just that it works.
4 inch capacitive touchscreen
1ghz snapdragon processor
8mp camera
This phone is on par with all the higher end androids, theres no reason whatsoever for 1.6 to have ever touched this phone in the US.

Its still absurd that this phone didnt ship with at least 2.0 or 2.1 though. Looking at the phones specs, its a decent peice of hardware being severely dampered by either AT&T or Sony Ericssons laziness.

There's always a reason.

anyone with a brain cares, those that don't care have apple devices. software updates are not for "tech junkies" it's for anyone who wants a better performing phone with newer features. also, what source did you get the information from about your pole on the "low percentage" ratio is from, I would like to know.

Now, that's just insulting. It was bad enough that these devices shipped with 1.6, but to now only upgrade them to 2.1, when everyone else is moving to 2.2, is a slap in the face to all the people who bought these devices.
I'd imagine Xperia users will be delighted. Can't please anyone these days, can you?
I just ordered a Captivate (FOR FREE!!!) for myself! Should be here by Tuesday, hopefully Monday.
