Thanks Bono. I've had the Play in my hands too. Looks like a lot of fun, it was only the dummy though. Mine gets delivered early next week.

O2 UK gives update on Xperia PLAY testing; close to launch
O2 are the exclusive provider of the sexy white version in the UK so this delay had many people annoyed.
They have just provided an update on the testing process and said that they have received some new software from Sony Ericsson that “has fixed a lot of the bugs that would have stopped our customers having a great experience when they use the PLAY.” The most important thing is that it is “nearly ready to go on sale”. There’s still no release date yet, but they are promising an update “very soon”.

Xperia PLAY Becomes Gameloft’s Best Performing Android Platform
While the Xperia PLAY did suffer various launch problems, from a “freight issue” to a mobile provider pulling out from the launch due to bugs, the platform’s biggest publisher, Gameloft, has announced that the phone is “already a top device” in terms of game sales, beating out tough competition from other Android phones.
In an extensive interview with PlayStation LifeStyle, Julian Stocker, Managing Director for Gameloft revealed:
From what we’ve seen already over this weekend – the sales are very good.
In the very first weekend its already a top device for us in terms of number of games being sold, which is pretty amazing actually, because that means it must have sold in a reasonable number already over the weekend.
He added that the launch difficulties don’t seem to have harmed the sales:
Looking at the sales we’ve seen, I don’t think there’s any problem; it has actually overtaken pretty much all the other Android devices already.

I'm expecting mine this coming Friday. I'm having an absolute nightmare with Three UK. I feel like they're slowly but purposely turning me into a homicidal maniac.

Vodafone tried to rip my son off saying he didn't have a data plan, only 900 mins and unlimited texts, so we had to spend half an hour convincing them that the order confirmation email showed 750mb data/month and even the online product sales page for the Play still showed the same deal when ordering!

thats what I said to my son. No networks sells a smart phone without a data plan these days.
he was good though.. very calm and dealt with it himself though I was standing by to jump in at the slighest hesiation on their side as this sort of nonesense from the networks just angers me.
I must say that the short time he's given me with the play has left a good impression, despite me not being much of a game player. I think  can be fairly proud of this one despite early issues holding back the white version @ o2, which was his first choice.

Yes,the only game I play is Angry Birds but I do like some sports games like racing or football. The Play would be nice to own as a all in one device that does everything. I was let down by the Arc I am awaiting the Xperia Pro now. All these new Xperia phones are Xciting

@Bono
I think I might just egg them.
There are a few people were I work in the same boat but I'm liking the exclusive games that are appearing.
They must be crackers if they think they can sell a smartphone with no data plan. It'd be like trying to sell a new car with no engine.

Can't wait. They have only had dummies in cpw. Wasn't impressed with the screen though. Although I compared to the X10 screen which is hard to beat for a lot of phones.
