This info is not true, I done care if it's from Uncle Sam. Go here and see that nobody else in the Americas use the 2100 UMTS Mhz but T-Mobile USA and Brizal, which is in South America http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UMTS_frequency_bands ....! Scroll all the way to the bottom, this is how false info get spreading around on the web from people we think we can trust. What's on SonyEricsson "Internal Computer System" is what counts to me 850/900/1700/1900/2100 MHZ UMTS. Another thing, AT&T may not even carry the xperia X1a or X1i, none at all.........!

Xperiancers only said that units are leaving the factory from September 30. And if they are being shipped out from Taiwan, yes, it can take 10 days to reach Europe via ship. Then it may take a couple more days for stores to get it out to their customers or on the shelves.
Whine all you want, but we don't quite have transporters yet.
If you want it faster, you could always bribe someone to get it FedEx direct from the factory.
Taiwan? Wonder if anyone in Taiwan got it...

no1 got it yet! SE lies! that' the problem!
i not sure if we really going to get X1 this week or next week!
maybe next week they got a new excuess!
delivery trucks lost the shipment.
wait for next shipment in November 2008!
if it' already on tawian, i'm sure it' all over ebay already!
Actually SE didn't lie. on the 30th the phones left the factory. And it's already available in Sweden. Did you think they would ship at midnight of the 30th and be available in stores the next minute? There is a matter of travel time and administration, you know. Also, if it's made in taiwan, that does not mean you'll be able to buy it there straight away. As already explained, Sweden, UK and Germany are the first to get it. So calm down!

if it' available, give me a retailer that i can buy it, so they can send it to me tommorrow!

According to a local retailer, they got 16 Xperias (mind you that we're not UK, Sweden or Germany, but still in the EU), and for now they're selling them only internally (to people who work there) for about 700$ (that's with discount mind you). Pics soon to follow.
I am not from sweden I don't know where the people who have it bought it (2 of them are on another forum). it's retail and they had to get it somewhere. You (not) beliveing it is totaly irrelevant. I don't quite understand the last question?

Where are you from if you don't mind sharing. Hopefuly the whole EU will get them fast (fingers crossed)

better to shut up then annonces a date that cant delivery! haha
It's early still. Give them sometime. I think the "press conference" was scheduled for this afternoon...also PST.

Yea I thought it was Nov 3rd too. It's sony, they're always late
I’ve been lurking in these forums waiting to actually get an x1 before registering. But at the rate SE is going I really don’t know when that’ll be. SE is really dropping the ball on this one. Wasn’t this device developed in California and specifically intended for the US market?
If the announcement is this late, imagine what the release will be like

the Eu version is out there everywhere with Online Retailers. I am told 1900MHZ works in most locations for 3G and AT&T. No 3G for T mob yet....
Called SE here in US today. There will be an announcement sometime this week as to the X1a. And, no, the X1i does not have the 850 3G Band.

sweet. thx for the info.
Check this out engadget says that sony says it's going to be in the US by november
Still no sign of the X1a?
Hello? SE? X1a? When will it be released in the US?
Hopefully we will here something on the same press release that is due today for the W705. Apparently their last announcement for the year according to blog.se-nse.net
Sigh.....according to a poster on xperiax1.net, Sony Ericsson will announce 11/31. Maybe the 11/3 was a typo from SE and they meant 11/31 all along
quoted text follows:
Hey guys, well I emailed the US SE and this is what they had to say about an announcement date:
Thank you for contacting Sony Ericsson Online Support.
The release in the American marker will be announce November 31st
If you require more information, or have any other questions, please visit our website at Sony Ericsson - Sony Ericsson or call us at 1-866-766-9374.

Obviously Francisco can't spell, so I don't know if I can trust this statement. It's more than likely just another stab in the dark from the people at SE
Ash snap, why so long? I need this thing now because my qtek dies when i make a call or SMS
yep It kinda sucks. Been waiting in the UK and being told next week for about 8 weeks, and then it comes out buggered up on the networks kinda sucks. If it was out a month ago I'd have bought i, as it stands, the touch HD is looking more appealing right now.... I can only imagine how galling it is to now be told it's 31/11/08 - It really would not surprise me if that date comes and goes with still no phone.
Pre-ordered and trying to patiently wait for the e-mail that says it shipped!
But what's really the difference in coverage...
Not saying I'll switch if X1a is better but...I'd like to see someone do a field test (i.e. side-by-side comparison) on ATT U.S. with the X1i and the X1a just to see if there is any difference with 3G coverage due to the missing 850mhz band from the X1i model.
Any existing ATT US X1i takers????

Where did you pre-order it? What carrier did you get it for? I'm not all that happy with my Fuze, and well within my 30day trial... Just played with a G1 today, and it was awesome, but I still like my winmo.
I preordered at Sony Style Family Center (basically Sony Style). They intially said they would ship Friday, but a couple days I got a follow up stating that it was pushed back to 11/25...as did a number of other customers.
Im with At&t here in Puerto Rico,I do a lot of internet radio streaming With Pocketplayer while driving in San Juan and I do not notice any diference between my kaiser and X1i.Basically same 3G with both
For me, I only care if the different in multimedia capacity is true or not.
Is SonyEricsson available in the US Market? I did not see many users using it when I was on a trip to Los Angeles few days ago?
Many users are using LG, Samsung or Motorola but never seen anyone using SonyEricsson.

Update from Sony Style
This was the email that I received:

We would like to inform you that the status of your order has been updated. The X1ASILVER you purchased on order has been rescheduled to ship on or about 11/25/2008. You will receive an email once your order ships.
You may view the status and tracking information of your order from your Sony Style Account. It provides a description of the status by clicking on the blue verbiage.
Please visit our website at SonyStyle.com or call 1-877-865-7669, option 1 to work with a Sony Style sales representative to find an alternative product that will meet your needs if you are unable to wait for the product to ship during the timeframe listed above.
We appreciate your patience and thank you for choosing Sony Style!
Cool - I had read on XD-developers forum where they were pushed back perhaps as far as FEB 2009. I can't wait for someone to do a thorough head-to-head comparison of the X1 and the Fuze. Anyone know if AT&T is considering support for the X1A?
Thanks
i just checked sonystyle.com, it said "In stock. Estimated ship date: 11/21/2008",
so i preordered again! they better ship my X1 silver tommorrow, or i going to complain to FTC for false advertising or misleading advertising!
Yes, I'm anxiously waiting...
I pre-ordered from sonystyle on the 13th, website said will ship the 21st. Got an email a day or two later that says the 25th, but I keep checking the website daily Just noticed it says "in stock". That's a great sign.
Sony is worthless...
Why can't they ever meet their own deadlines or ship dates? They're logistically pathetic.

just checked sonystyle.com, now it said "in stock, ship date 11/24/2008"
yesterday it said "in stock, ship date 11/21/2008".
i hope those people that preordered yesterday, ship 11/21/2008
and those that order today, ship 11/24/2008.
if my order is not ship by 11/24/2008, i going to cancel my order AGAIN!
That's the day it will ship if you ordered TODAY! When you go back to the site on Monday, it will say 11/25/2008 (Tuesday). They throw in a buffer of one day for order processing. Don't worry LOL.
they just charged my credit card! so it' coming.. maybe..
Hey Netnerd, when did you pre-order? Their site clearly states that you won't be billed until it ships, so I would think they are shipping out today.
preordered yesterday, 11/20/2008. credit card charged. no tracking number yet, maybe I get tracking at end of day..

You can make the preorder online, check on rogers website, and on the search bar put xperia play, they are taking pre orders until May 1st, you can choose either color and the plan, always with 3 years contract, they dont allow off contract preorders.
What I'm dying to know is if the Rogers Xperia Play will have an unlocked bootloader.

SE is in talks with the carriers to make that happend. Could be why Rogers and Verizon is taking longer to get their phones out. I always wondered why Verizon's phone comes with stock gingerbread instead of sony's skinned version.
I can't find this anywhere but I could have sworn SE was holding an event tomorrow.
Does anyone have a link?

Vancouver BC is about 6 hours drive from where I live. Planning to make a mini weekender vacation trip if Verizon doesn't pipe up before the 28th...

The cheapest plan is around 55$.
200 minutes
Evenings (from 6pm) and weekends unlimited local calling
500 Mb of data (you can add 5$ for another 500 mb)
There's other options/extra available such as caller id, voicemail for a fee.
Without a contract you have to pay 500 euro's or more here (725 USD).
Also any news on the Bootloader?
What about Vanilla android? I saw the image a few posts back but it seems like a photoshop fail.

Here's a video of both the arc and play at the rogers launch party. As you can see it comes with the Sony's skinned version of gingerbread.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=951lUN_xyXE
Its locked.
MarlowXim said:
Was there at the launch the SE employee who was streaming Asphalt on the TV mentioned it was locked.
What I thought of the device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12923446&postcount=49
Software wise:
It has a skinned version of 2.3. I think it does have a custom launcher as well. All I remember it was all menus were light blue. (apologies we were downing to many drinks at the bar, electronics are far more interesting under the influence)
The unit I was using didn't have a properly working game launcher. When you pop the gamepad wasn't working, such that whatever you selected crashed back to home. Had to launch Asphalt from homescreen.
Didn't benchmark it to see if performance improved, since CES but the UI seemed pretty smooth. Both camera's worked infact you could stream via MHL to HDMI and play it on a big screen TV.
Thats all the info I can recall.. we were busy with the Arc benchmarking and whatnot and seeing how it compares to 2.3 galaxy s.
Didn't know any other XDA dev/users that were invited. We need to flash hand signals or something.

Wonder if the Xperia Play Rogers edition is SIM/Network locked. I'm betting probably, so if someone from the US bought one for the full non-contract price we'd still have to get the SIM unlock to be able to use it in the states.
And would they even sell the phone contract free to someone that is not already a Rogers customer?
If any Canadians on here could check that out, that would be killer... I could stay with AT&T instead of having to bail to get this on Verizon.
This info might help other Canadians too. Isn't Fido another GSM network up there?
It is locked for sure
There is a off contract price 499 I believe
Unlock should not be hard, and I guess u can just carry it around like a pap go when you didn't unlock it
I spoke with three different Sony store managers in Toronto (Eatons Center), Vaughan (Vaughan Mills) and Markham (Markville Mall), while also speaking with four Rogers store representatives (three from the above stores, and one agent on the phone).
They all confirmed that the Xperia Z is coming to Canada late June of this year!
The Sony Store Manager at Eatons Center even showed me his paperwork confirming the device as "on order".
All did state that it was Rogers bringing it in, so unsure of other carriers, but without stating which carrier, all Sony Store's stated Rogers was bringing it in, so it may be a Rogers exclusive..

I'm not saying I believe OP (I want to, but everything with a grain of salt with these rumours), but the ZL is already in Canada so there should be no reason for them to say it would come in 'Late June' as it's available now.

I can confirm to both of you, and anyone else reading, that the sheet said Sony Xperia 6603 - which is the Z variant with LTE support, water proof and dust proof. I wish I had have taken a picture (assuming he would've let me). It was listed three times, one for each colour (black white and faaaaaaaabulous)

If it's the C6603, then why am I waiting for it? Thought it would be the C6606. I guess if that's the case, I may as well just grab an import this week. It's not like the Sony Store price will be less than $650.
check yourself, cause people are waiting and potentially excited for the 6606, not the 6603, which we could have purchased a month ago...
edit: with the timing of the recent 6606 leaks, it seems likely that that was a typo... here's hoping

6603 is an LTE version, that is useless in North America. HSPA+ version aka C6602 is released in the US as of today. The 6606 aka TMO exclusive LTE will be released shortly. So it makes no sense to bring 6603 here. It will not work. If anything, Rogers should get the 6606 as it has the same chip inside as the ZL. So check it, you might remember it wrong.

I talked to 2 Sony Stores in the past week and both said the Xperia Z is not coming to Canada. I've been holding out hope for a 6606 to show up anywhere.

If talking to frontline people - don't bother, they are ALL idiots and don't know nothing about anything.
