What people forget is that it takes more than a year for it to get into a phone. Tegra 3 will come to phones 2013 most likely. Tegra 2 3d not even this year if its released now

I bet my life You will see devices with Tegra 3 latest by Q1 2012
IT does not take a "year" or two for a chipset to get into phones. Tegra 2 phones became available recently weeks after it was made official.
Nvidia has mentioned Tegra 3 samples were ready Q4-2010. So I do not think they should have any problem starting commercial production of the chip within the targeted timeframe

As I thought tegra 2 is already outdated.
Go for qualcomm 3D dualcore snapdragon SE. 
Edit: Why is Nokia buying the ST-Ericsson most powerful platform http://www.engadget.com/2011/[....]s-dual-core-st-ericsson-u850/, and SE isn't even using the U5500 platform. Well the snapdragon dualcore should be sufficient, but it is SonyEricsson!!!

Think there is a good chance xperia play will be unveiled at the event. Psp2 will probably kick of with a new online service with downloadable content which can be used by play also. Or at least that is what I hope

Tooo Bad Expect
Every Other Manufacturer Is Launching a Phone with DUAL CORE
I dono Y ain't ERICSSON Helping SONY ERICSSON to Use there dual core:evil:
Posted by Indiandawg
I want to know if any of the upcoming Sony Ericsson devices will have NFC?
If am not mistaken, Arc does not have NFC.
As Android 2.3 supports NFC, I wonder why SE did not choose put NFC chip for Arc
While the only Android phone which has NFC is Google Nexus S.
Posted by tranced
Good point. I think this hasn't been mentioned very much here.
Posted by Indiandawg
Also what is the comparison between Google Nexus S and SE Arc CPU?
And which one is better and why?
Would really appreciate this
Posted by mustafabay
No, arc doesn't have NFC and frankly it makes me happy. NFC hasn't taken off yet and it looks like its going to be first in the US, which isn't a big
market. needs to concentrate on making money so cutting niche features isn't a problem. If NFC gets enough traction they can add it to their H2 flagship with dual core and such, if we can beleive the rumours. And eldar may be totally right about the vivaz2, it beats the specs of the just announced Galaxy Ace which I think will be a competitor.
What does worry me though is rumours of phones with pico projectors and other silly things. I mean Samsung and LG already did them and how well did they do? If they're just doing prototypes to test the stuff fine, but considering it for retail sounds stupid. Maybe if they can double the quarterly sales or something; then maybe it would be ok. But now? I hope for their own sake they keep up the trend of becoming smarter and don't ruin it with a pico projector.

I could very well imagine the overall portable PlayStation strategy will be unveiled there, including the PlayStation Pocket platform, which could appear on more products than just PSP2 and Xperia Play. Perhaps the platform is announced on the 27th as part of the PSP2 announcement, but the phone is only hinted at? Or just shown without going into detail besides the PlayStation Pocket platform.

@Indiandawg: can you move it? Are you a moderator?
Just kidding pal.
@mustafabay: I know it doesn't have nfc. What I meant is that this feature hasn't been mentioned here for future
phones.[ This Message was edited by: tranced on 2011-01-25 19:23 ]

I really don't care what SE has to do for itself. If it's facing loss or profit, it really does not matter to me.
I have always been buying SE smartphones and currently using X10.
Now I feel, there is a big change in innovation of technology and also the consumer knowledge. The pace in today's technology is too fast. I can't sit and wait for SE to catch up anymore. I want my next device to be something where I can use it anywhere. For a fact, I do travel a lot and I can use NFC in Japan. The point is having a smartphone with cutting edge technology. I really don't think am asking too much as I see a lot of good innovative mobile phones from other manufacturers.
Not that SE cannot do it or whatever, I love SE and I really appreciate their quality smartphones and that's the only reason I'm going to wait for SE to come with Dual core + NFC and god knows what comes out next
I just hope SE delivers it!

Found this article via google news.
Sony Ericsson: No NFC for Arc, but in portfolio pretty soon
Posted by KU
January 2011, 27th sounds good because then the surprise at MWC would be the Xperia Neo. Arc is official, Play anounce in january 27th and Duo could be the "hallon". So that would mean that Back2you has right for dualcore 3D and 16mpx, plus the 5.5 inch device. Then I am waiting for mizzle preview of all these sweets phones to chose the one which suit me better.

First: Gonna play with "Hallon" this weekend
Second: We talked a little about the U8500 platform he works with and the info was that it's not really optimized yet. They need to lower power consumtion and some other "greek" I could not understand. He also mentioned that Samsung has really put pressure on ST-Ericsson to deliver the U8500 platform for them to use this spring, with launch already in april/may. He also said that the platform will probably not be ready until Q3. Also SonyEricsson is looking to release dual-core phones but not until Q3.
I have to point out that he works for ST-Ericsson and he does not know all the details since it's all a secret but being involved in the development of U8500 gives him some descent know-how!
So according to him there "might" be a dual core from SE based on the U8500 platform in late summer this year.
The best of all this is that his wife works at SonyEricsson and I will have the chance to play around with "Hallon" all weekend, great fun!
All above is from a discussion we had on the phone, it's my interpretation of the phone call...it's NOT facts, but there might be some substance in it!
Will get back with a short summary of how "hallon" feels like this weekend...
Nice info, thanks. Looking forward to the summary

You are very lucky !!! Hope you will have fun, and looking forward to your summ'.
But Samsung to have the U8550 wow that's an information,
but I think SE isn't going to use this chip for the maybe Xperia Neo, but for the 5.5inch device. Thx 
Posted by rss_ndrsn
Why does SE have to use U8500 when OMAP 4430 is readily available? Omap 4430 is almost as powerful as the ST-U8500. The specs of Omap 4 can be found at ti.com. Q3 is just too much wait. SE needs to present their flagship this year on MWC 2011, or else other companies will outshine them. Xperia Play and Halloon are not just enough, let alone the Xperia Arc. I really hope to see the Android 2.3 phone with dual-core processor and 16.43 megapixel camera announced at MWC 2011.

^It is just my assumption about the dual-core device from SE. Since according to him we will not see a dual-core smartphone from SE until Q3 and the time to optimize the U8500 platform, it is easy to think that the first device will be running U8500 under its hood. Plus, If SE is planning on using OMAP 4 to begin with, it should have been optimized, too, together with the U8500. But so far, we have not heard anything about OMAP 4 except for false rumours. The rest of my said post was about just about the need for a dual-core device from SE to be released as soon as possible....that's all.

TI OMAP4 is not as powerful as ST Ericsson U8500 and Samsung Orion. Mainly in graphics, as U8500 and Orion use the Mali 400 Quad Core GPU whereas OMAP 4 uses SGX540.
But still, overall the U8500 and Orion are equally powerful and OMAP4, Dual core Snapdragon, Tegra 2 are all inferior

@smclion102,,,
give him a break, he has a point that a lot of members thought he's a lier and he just wanted to say that what he wrote from several weeks ago is correct at least some parts of it ( hey this is a rumour topic so we can expect some true and false info's around.. specially
can change any plan they thought about )...
if you knew something, then other may don't know.. not every body follows this thread.. so some repeat is good... but not that much. you don't see him repeats in every page do you ?
I think there's some peoples here are better to yal onto thier faces.. those who what ever
do and make.. they just don't like it.. even if it makes sense... but those don't like any thing.. and compare to other companies ( they had dual core; don't... they had AMOLED; don't ) and so on... I can give you what ever right to yal on these guys as those guys who makes this thread bad to read...

If SE is going to launch it dualcore/3D/16mpx/fullhd in early to mid Q3 like the iphone5 which is going to be launch in June then that's fine for. And don't except Samsung to launch it uber phone more than several weeks before what Ithink is going to be xperia neo, still these phones are the most powerful to be launch in 2011.

I have to laugh that 16,43 MP. If the camera captures 4:3 photos, and the photos have 16.000.216 pixels, they are 4619 pixels wide, if the resolution is 16.438.502 (and that is 16,44 Mp !!!
) than the width is 4682 pixels. The difference is 63 pixels. At that resolution who cares about it??? And if we even don't buy 16 Mp ordinary cameras, why would we buy a phone with it taking into account that phone manufaturers (recently SE too) want more money for this "high performance" solution. If the sensor's phisical dimension is given you can "parcel" it into 16 million pixels, but above a number a pixels they will be so tiny that almost every single pixel will be useless. But I am not the first who mentions this.
And you are waiting ultra high specifications, which costs a fortune, and I think it costs more than how much extra experience it gives to you.
I am using still my C901. C905's or Satio's specifications in a phone, for a good price would be a perfect choice for me. The C905 and Satio themselves are outdated, and in spite of the Xenon flash their cameras don't capture, with even a higher resolution, more details than C901.
A good phone for me would be with these features, for 250-300 euro, but anyway below 350 euro:
-A good, simple, logical and fast UI. With more possibilities of personalisation, and themes.
-A performant file manager (Like in A200 or S60(?) phones). (Maybe better media manager.)
-A good camera with max 8 or 12 MP, and Xenon flash, good picture quality, and detailed shots (like the C901), and image stabiliser. HD video recording (or at least VGA with continuous, smooth recording).
-A sharp screen (for that price a 320*480 resolution would be enough)
-A good headset.
-Wifi of course, and some social networking functions (the latter isn't that important).
-Capacitive touchscreen (of course).
-A stunning design, not heavier than 110 g, and not thicker than 15 mm.
Is there anyone who also would buy a phone like this?

...scored a chart-topping 1,689 on Quadrant and an impressive 59fps on Neocore. Other benchmark scores include: about 35 MFLOPS on Linpack, and around 43fps on NenaMark (tying with the Tegra 2-packing LG Star).
Wait a minute, tied with supa-dupa dual core Tegra 2, that`s not possible!!! Engaged you son of the ****** don`t lie to us!
Xperia Play look awesome at the back it reminds me of Vivaz but kinda more stylish. Camera also look pretty well for now, even if it`s not final version. With last version of Android and more polished softwere XPlay will stand next to Arc to prove anybody that
seriously raised their game in 2011. Well done!

Difference between SONY and
LOL
The PSP2 has a Cortex A9 Quad Core CPU and a Quad Core GPU as well
LOLLLLLLLL
Beats the pants off Samsung ORion and ST ericsson U8500
PSP2 gonna beat the hell out of Galaxy S2 /Atrix and the dual core Android brigade
Off topic but just wondering if SONY made smartphones, it would have used the same chipset in its flagship phone maybe
