Sony-XPERIA-X10

Well, looks like Sony decided to pull the plug on any future support for teh XPERIA X10 family of devices with regards to available updates after Android 2.1. This is not going to sit well with owners of the XPERIA X10 models, which includes the X10, X10 mini, and the X10 mini Pro. This means no Froyo, or Gingerbread, or anything further Android OS. iSad.

Sony did state that they will continue to develop updates for some of the proprietary software included in the XPERIA X10 line such as multitouch and mediascape going forward. If you’d won’t take NO for an answer though, you can always find a good unofficial ROM for Froyo or Gingerbread too.

    No Android updates on Sony phones = no Sony phones for me.
