Glad to hear it. Any other info you can share like rough launch dates for the Android or Windows tablet, or more design info? The only other thing I've been able to gather is that the Android tablet will have an HDMI out port which should be nice. |

As reliable as can be  . The magnesium aluminum body tablet is an Android tablet. There will be both Android and Win8 tablets from Sony. Win8 tablets will be sold under VAIO brand.
Its good to know. Thank randomuser. Really hope win8 tablet from Sony. Hoping it will have pro version like microsoft surface as I don't like to carry notebook and tablet together. A tablet than can function as a full notebook going to be awesome. |

Any news about Cloud gaming on Xperia phones now that Sony have acquired gaikai @randomuser? this alone is pretty much exciting for those unhappy with the content quality of android games right now

True Razec, hopefully next year we will see something in that regard
As of now no news. I wouldn't expect any news until next year at the earliest. |

Gaikai Cloud should be exclusive to Xperias only (true Console quality gaming never before seen on a low performance device), while make PSMobile open to competitors, that's one good approach for sony to follow imo as Sony Xperias will have a specialty of their own to compete with the ever increasing popularity of Apple gaming

Gaikai's cloud services for Sony won't be Sony device exclusive I think. I think they'll keep selling it device / brand independent, just like their Music Unlimited or Video Unlimited services. I'm guessing they'll even call it Game Unlimited or so and they'll want it on as much devices as possible for maximum revenue. It'll be a casual alternative to their PlayStation brand IMO.
That said, I could see them launching a beta or so on Xperia models first or perhaps an Xperia branded gamepad that is included with some reference game phones? |

That is the International Hayabusa and not the Japanese model. Japanese model is S0-04D.
Wow, that's actually good news. The fact that it's in the FCC, it'll mean that release/launch won't be too far off!!!
It's also unlikely to be sold subsidized in the US: there's no LTE indicated in the FCC reports and the model suffix is merely "i". |

US is supposed to get Mint on AT&T, which is supposed to be LTE, so unlikely Hayabusa will be sold on a carrier in the states.

Nokia 5160 -> Nokia 8260 -> SE T68i -> SE K700i -> SE Z710 -> SE Xperia X10a -> Sony Xperia S -> Sony Xperia Z1 -> Sony Xperia XZ -> Sony Xperia XZ Premium -> Sony Xperia 1ii

I really don't care if it's sold/subsidized by a carrier or not mainly because I have always bought my phone at full price since I had a mobile phone. As long as it works with T-Mobile, in this case the LT29i does, I'm cool. Will definitely buy it now, just waiting for release. |

I'm not keen on all the flaps to be honest a like a nice clean hole to stick my connector, not have to mess around getting oversized flaps out of the way.
Is that the Arco S?
I have a dig bick
You read that wrong |

Wow covering 3.5mm jack is such a fail. I understand USB port and HDMI, as these are used only when phone is on a table etc. But headphone jack is used mainly in pocket while being in motion, having to f*ck around with a flop that will fall of approx. after few months is a big turn OFF not a turn on  |
