The advert is Brazilian, and it basically says "Xperia Play: that's how you play with a smartphone". The Xperia Play is kind of huge in Latin America, and seemingly the Latin American Xperia Plays are built in Brazil. There's another successful advert which says "For the gamer inside you", and it goes like this:
Latin American adverts, particularly the Argentinian ones, are way better than average.
Touch screen gaming at its finest
I liked the ending

Outside of Google IO, I've never heard anyone call it FROY OH.

well its frozen yoghurt so it should be called fro yo so it still sounds like yoghurt
I'm always worried about mispronouncing it out of laziness so I go the extra mile and say "Froy Yo"... Can't have too many Y sounds in a row, doncha know...

THAT is bizarre. They do say it weird, froy-oh. what the heck.
If im not mistaken, and given that frozen yogurt stuff has taken california by storm, froyo in pop culture is pronounced fro-yo, and that is how i have been saying it lol.
The googlers who said froy oh may not be native american speakers.

granted that, if you watch the video, they are clearly in perfect command of american standard english with zero accent what so ever. so whatever the reason for froyos pronunciation, i cant attribute it to their english skills
Vic Gundotra used to be a higher up at microsoft, started there before 1991, so he's been here in the U.S. for at least nearly 20 years.
English in the US is affected by regional dialects and colloquialisms just like any other language.
I'm from Chicago and we pronounce certain things differently than say someone from Dallas. Even my business associate from New York can say the most simple things differently from me.
Fro-Yo or Froy-O; either is acceptable. None of that matters anyways since it's not a real word.
I call it Android 2.2, unless I want to #### with people, then I call it "forgurt" and if anyone mentions "froyo" I act like they're insane.
Leo Laporte says FROY OH. Drives me nuts. FRO YO my brotha!

typically any short form of a phrase has everything to do with what it is formed from. FROzen YOghurt. It seems the simplest solution is to pronounce as a combination - FRO-YO rather than make a new term - FROY-OH
edit: I think we realise we are discussing an irrelevant point. But that is what most of the internet is.

None! It's completely free from all that bollocks. Comes with a few harmless Samsung apps but no bloat really.
That's providing you get an unbranded handset. I fear for what Orange are gonna do to it.

Yeah I'm hoping we don't get bloatware from our US carriers.
Now, did the original line of Galaxy S devices come with Avatar for you guys? And did the Galaxy S 4G come with Inception?
That's what it is here in US, but maybe you guys get different movies? I don't really know how that kind of stuff works. I mean, do you guys even have movies like Avatar and Inception? (I'm assuming you're in UK or something?)
In Holland we don't get free movies on our phones.....

I hate how carriers have to fill their devices with bloatware. I mean, people don't use them anyways, so what's the point. Just makes the device slower. I'm afraid that will happen to the Galaxy S2 in the USA....if it ever gets here.

Well it was how they advertised the Super AMOLED screen, saying it was a "cinema quality display in the palm of your hand", and came with Avatar. Look here:
http://galaxy-s.t-mobile.com/vibrant/avatar-preloaded-samsung-vibrant (Only picked Vibrant because that is the first that came up when I searched haha)
And then the Galaxy S 4G has Inception preloaded. Click on the 5th of the 6 blue dots on the little ad below the top bar. Middle picture shows Inception and it says Preloaded with Inception.

For one it will probably be Windows Phone (VERY VERY LOW game count) if its for Xbox, and 2 I will never buy another Sony again, "Definitely" if its Windows Phone.

Thats funny because I remember when ICS was pulled for the Play and you said that Sonys motto shouldnt be "make.believe" but "dont.believe" and you werent going to buy another Sony product again.......
Anyway, the Play was a failure. An experiment following in the N-Gage footsteps. Apart from all the people in the Play section on XDA and my brother I dont know a single other person with a Play.
Keep dreaming guys

So you cant just buy a USB gamepad? They are just as good as the Play gamepad. I also find it very hard to believe that at 28 years old you cannot buy a console for your home.
Sorry to break it to you but what company would release a follow-up to a commercial failure? Nokia failed on the N-Gage then decided to revamp the N-Gage brand in the N95 series. It FAILED AGAIN. The mobile market is advancing faster than most other things right now so a "gaming optimised" device will only be top-of-the-line for a few months before being surpassed. It reminds me of the PC market. A New PC is outdated the second its made.
People need to drop the "Play 2" thing as its really getting old now.

More than expected? They mustnt have expected to shift very many then. Dont get me wrong, I love the Play but it was still a failure. I remember asking not long after the Play came out in my local Carphone Warehouse store and 3 months after launch they had shifted 1 Play. A similar story can be read here http://m.mobot.net/sony-ericsson-xperia-play-sales-figures
With absolutely piss poor sales there will not be a Play 2 and Sony would have to be absolutely retarded if they made one

Sony is split into different divisions. The Console/Handheld division is the side plagued with idiocy. Removing features from PS3 such as OtherOS install and lack off cross-game chat. The Vita is failing already due to Nintendo pretty much holding monopoly of the market.
The mobile division is doing ok though. I know quite a few happy Xperia series users. Sony were smart not releasing ICS on the Play due to the gamepad messing up. Some people have this thought that they are entitled to every single update that is released by Android. It comes down to peoples stupid buying ideas of buying for what the device can do in the future instead of buying it for what it can do at the time of release.

This thread should be locked, it's complete balderdash and a preconception of the 50/50 obvious. *Nobody* knows if Sony will release another Android gaming phone except for High-up Sony staff, which Mark is *not* in contact with.

Haha so true if theyed stop the bullcrap the could be more of a competitor to nintendo but like you said they just keep up the bull the main problem is there lack of sofware for the hardware. The best example of this is the xperia play aka psm disaster lol psm actually disgusts me now ps1 was ok but what in the flying hell is on there now talk about.

I for one am 25 and a seperate gamepad is out of the question. First off im a delivery driver and bust it out for quick sessions between deliverys, I already have to bring a gps(i go where theres no cell data) a work phone, and my phone. Im not going to carry around another item just to play a quick round IIF I have time. Sometimes I just want to try a save state once or twice literally 20secs.
Same with when I go mountain biking, or snowboarding I already have multiple items I dont want or may not even remember a seperate controller. And I may not have time or even want to get a little emulation time in. Same with surfing if I by chance am waiting in the car, these things are relatable to many other times your outside.
A phone with a slide out is always nthing else to remember, not to mention at 26 and most my friends arent into emulation or gaming really so im not about to start busting put a gamepad and akwardly having my phone clipped or on my lap and pretend its not pretty odd. I would never do that at waiting rooms like the dmv either, I dont mind people know im a gamer but that just seems rediculous to me unless your at home or in a car. Seems like it would draw attention when I for one am trying to chill blend in.
Meanwhile with a slideout it just looks like im texting like a regular person non fanatic gamer.
