I thought it was fake and I still do. (I watched this video awhile ago,first comment too lol)
I think he recorded it,and rendered it as HD.
Obvious fake. And I don't think that there will be any update that allows the Xplay to record @720p too much time has passed since its launch.
If someday the Xplay can record HD video it will be thanks to the users that will make some kind of hack or unofficial update.
Yes my friend, we'll just have to wait, just like nexus one, i'm sure it will solve, but much later, cause it still isn't a proper custom rom 4 play yet (waiting for cm, who always done a v good job).

i was gonna say something similar....hell, i'll say it anyway
its like saying you've been on android 2.2 for to long so dont expect 2.3
how many months has the x10 gone without 2.3, in fact i think it must be at least a year now, still hasn't got it but its coming this summer

Actually it has only just recently been released to all regions and USA just got the 3G version for AT&T.
I also seem to recall the earlier reviewers models have 720p enabled on the tech blogs.
Sony on the Playstation side always tends to release upgrades that improve the systems but they hold back to enable it later rather than around launch time.
I am thinking now that most regions where it launched received 2.3.3 and .185 out of box that the next official big upgrade could include it.
still on 2.3.2 in Mexico, but it just came out not more than a month ago

We already have the upgrade available in Mexico... (I think it have been available for a week now).
just launch the Pc companion software from your PC when connected to the Xperia, and it will prompt you about the available update!
hopefully the 720p recording capabilities will be included in October's 2.3.4 update for the Play! Yey!
I dont think they should give 2.3.4 in the 1st place...its mostly for Google talk and the security issues which we already got in 2.3.3 and a hacked version of gtalk is also available...
They should put us to 2.4 directly and should concentrate on giving us 2.4 which is expected to come out in q4 of this year

I heard today from a guy at a local store, that he heard from an inside source of SE that the reasons the update is takibg long is because they devepoperw are having lag issues caused by the increase in color denisity (65 thou to 16m), theyr working on optimizing hd recording where thyr trying to get higher fpses as well as optimization regarding 720p playback... other improvments that he mentioned where problems known in 1.6 such as low incall volume as well as the poor battery perfomance...and that the update might be posponed to late q4............ this is not an official source so its possible that some of he said if not all wasnt true i just hope the update will be worth the wait
I will be crushed if I have to wait till end of Q4
2.1 is outdated now , we need 2.2 like the rest of other devices
sony should do it fast there is lot of competition in the market like desire,xdroid etc
They should release what they have and fix any issues with updates.

Lemme tell ya, coming from a nexus one running 2.2 I was not impressed with it compared to 2.1. froyo was supposed to be such a big deal and to me nothing really changed. I'm Perfectly happy with my x10 now and ill be happier with 2.1....more so than I was with my nexus one with froyo.
That are bad news hope they will not come true. But on15.September HTC releases his desire hd. As soon as it is to buy here I will order it.
I'm wondering if I will get first 2.1 or the desire hd ?

Q4 now?
So I guess it's confirmed for release in early 2011. Can't wait.
Wow late quarter 4. Now sony is taking the piss if this is true.
They should skip SE customization in the first release and release with stock Android 2.2 without wasting more time to solve issues with their 2.1 release.
If this is true and 2.1 come end of Q4, it will only make SE look even worse than coming out with 1.6 now. By then all new Androids will probably already come with 3.0.

Nothing official yet anyway. Still looking at end of September. They would be shooting themselves in the foot by delaying, especially in light of the at&t release.

So, if I told you a story about how some dude on the subway today was like "The update for 2.1 was delayed until Q2 2011" would you believe me?
Not exciting. All hearsays. I'm already desensitized.
why are people bothered about the SE 2.1 when we have some of the best dev's known on the task of getting us to 2.2???
dont live your lifes waiting for a SE 2.1 as chances are you will get more and more wound up about it.
I think Sony Ericsson should just release a clean Android 2.1/2.2 for our device and then later on one with their custom UI and let the users decide what type they want on their device in the future.

The update including v2.1 and HD recording will be released before the end of September, and will not be delayed to Q4 like someone mentioned here on the forum.

It's not old, it is a new announcement from 2 days ago.
Someone here on the forum claimed that he has some internal information from Sony saying that the updated will pushed back to Q4 due to performance issues, and this new announcement reassures that the update will be released on Q3 as promised before.

I didn't mean old as in the passage of time but rather old as in that specific tweet had been discussed to death already. Was just trying to inject a quick quip before the hordes descended on the thread and flamed it into oblivion.
the announcement is very important. There has been a lot of rumors flying around the market. In this particular time, the consumers do need the official clarification instead of just guessing themselves. Thanks to SE UK for making the announcement again, which should have been done on the SE product launch blog.

Heh, airplanes take years to design, test and build. The 747 for example started development in 1965 before entering service in 1970.

More like taking the blueprints for a 747, building a new body but keeping the infrastructure underneath while adding a fourth floor. It's not as big of a task as building it from scratch but it while take considerable time to develop, test and then finally build it. Might not take five years, but getting it done it under two would be a massive accomplishment.

Even if they slip on the date, they can atleast keep us posted....not like we'd eat them up for slipping a date :|

On a Side Note:
Unfortunately I could never RESPECT HTC being an OEM for HP and many other brands, still it could never develop products which really appeal me. Samsung on the other hand came with some of the firsts of times like Voice Dialing, Super AMOLED to name a few.
My only complain about Galaxy S is the lack of touch sensitive middle button which could have acted as a trackpad! Also, lack of physical keyboard pains a bit, but I hope Android can really come to terms with Windows Phone which is limited in flexibility like iPhone. Android has their own problems being on initial stage.
Please excuse for dragging the discussion to another angle, however, I believe Samsung is also in infancy like Android while HTC is gradually maturing (though long way to go, not sure if they will ever make it).
With Galaxy S, Samsung made the right move, at the right time. They just need a good development team now to improve their software platform, features and flexibility of this phone atleast in terms of multimedia and performance (the features which best suit this phone).
Sorry for the long post, however I hope Samsung and we at XDA can really work wonders to this phone atleast in terms of multimedia support and features like simultaneous recording and playback of HD Audio (24bit 96kHz) which I believe this phone is capable of including call recording option atleast through a third party app. Hope this could be realized by the Froyo release or further updates, or through the capable developers of XDA.

do you know for sure if HID support is coming?
I don't know about you, but i find this kind of weird.
Nobody at Google says anything about Android 3.0.
CES 2011 comes and Motorola shows up with a tablet which only runs a bunch of hypothetical movies about the supposed Android 3.0 experience. They say they'll start shipping it on the 14th of February.
Doesn't it seem odd that with only a month to go they don't have at least a beta version to show at CES, just a bunch of videos and they plan to start shipping it a month from now?
Am i missing something here? I remember the Android 2.2 update for the Galaxy S as an example. They announced the SDK in May and many only got the update in november. So it took 5-6 months JUST to make an existing system work for the Galaxy S, not invent it. And now they are a month away from shipping a tablet with a stable version and they just have some videos..
They did a live demo

I would suggest you to forget about official 2.3 Cause they have NO interest in making it cause it's stupid to work on things that are already on sale and they have newer models..they just don't give a damn about customers or their older phones. They may do 2.3 if they release or have any new model with similar hardware - so then maybe.. I don't see any reason why they should want to release 2.3
I believe they are going to release it as some models already have the upgrade.

I think companies will soon realise that some customers will no longer purchase their tech if there is an insufficient upgrade path.
I wont be buying another Huawei soley due to the slow/lack of support for almost all models within a few months of their release.
Why would I buy a new computer if it wont be upgradable to the next OS within a few months?
A computer running early ubuntu can still easily be upgraded to the lastest no problem, most companies nowadays worry about support first and about the tech later and i'm starting to get that way about phones, dont want to constantly change tech only because the support is ****.
Sure i understand the profit motive to make people buy new phones every 6 months, but its just getting a bit ridiculous when your talking about $500 phones especially in these economic times, if they put a big sticker on the outside of the box saying 'NO SUPPORT AFTER 6 MONTHS' i'm sure they wouldnt sell as well, everytime I see a Huawei box I just imagine that sticker on the front now
