Xperia X10 Android (Froyo) 2.2 Update

Dear SE

Almost all major smartphones that have similar specs with the X10 are getting the Froyo 2.2 update treatment in the coming few weeks or in the pipeline and it's amazing that you are still sitting on this with regards to the possibility of this particular update. I hope you do realise that the company are losing customers fast and this will be killing the business as you are effectively flogging phones that are all out of date or not in keeping with the market. I only hope that the news will inevitably put some pressure on you to bring forward these updates including the 2.2 (only if...).

The 2.1 update plan at the end of Q3 or beginning of Q4 and with no definitive answer whether the X10 is going to receive the 2.2 update in the future is just not good enough. Unless the 2.2 update comes in early Q4 which is highly unlikely with the way things are going if you are only going to release 2.1 then, it would be pointless. It's no brainer to release 2.2 straightaway as opposed to the 2.1 update announced and with further updates to tweak the Timescape and Mediascape later on if they are the ones that are holding up the release of the 2.2 update.

I am sick of being left in the dark with the 2.2 update. I want a definitive answer if this is going to happen OR NOT!!! SE's handiling of this fast and competitive market is just inept and way to slow. It won't surprise me that you could be following Nokia's footsteps in the next financial year if the current situation continues. I want a phone that comes with the right support and updates it deserves (not out of date within 3 month period!!).

I am now thinking that perhaps I should get the Samsung Galaxy S instead...

SE, please listen to the customers and take action to address what your loyal customers want and deserve.

Regards

SE loyal customer

I heard (from another forum so take this with a pinch of salt.) that there is currently no plan to work on the 2.2 just the 2.1. But as I said just voicing what I read from another forum so may or not be true.

I have no idea of the difference between 2.1 and 2.2 but I did want the hd update to my x10 bought on by the 2.1 update as well as the migrate apps function to free up internal memory.

Im also a loyal customer and I love this phone it just has some minor issues that need addressing quickly rather than trying to integrate them all into one big patch. A smaller quick fix of some issues (like the call volume etc) could be done with no more than a line of code and even with security OTA additions to confirm real update would be less than 100K to impliment.

This is my 4th SE phone and compared to the 902 (my last SE phone) it has proved to be a little less than I woudl expect from this manafacturer. Come on guys help us out here we like this phone now help us love it.
