@Arne Anka,
I've already saw that, but as I told you, what I'm assuming is not 100% correct as it's only based on two low-res pictures and what a guy from mobile-review saw and said "On the back side of the cradle there is an HDMI slot"...
This thing, along with the fact that the Dock only connects to the phone using USB and still provide HDMI makes me wonder if Xperia line of phones actually support MHL in some way.. even the standard MHL one, or non-standard one which can explain why  didn't advertise the feature...
if this is true, then can use either microUSB or miniHDMI for charging using some sort of adapter or a multi-way cable that connect to the dock only using the miniHDMI but can charge and connect to a TV or PC using USB in the same time...
does any one here have an Arc/Neo & MHL cable ( like the one used in GS2 ) so he can connect it to the microUSB of the phone and an HDMI input in a TV ?

So when can we buy Ray and from where?
Which country will be the first to have it, and what webshop do you use to buy it from then? |

Maybe it is a mini-HDMI, but it still has a flash symbol right below it, which usually indicats it is used for charging.

It is a micro USB connector, not a mini-HDMI.

Tell that to Xajel, not me (I just repeated what he said). 
Is the device supporting HDMI output at all as has been stated in some reviews and if so, which port is used for that ? |

I'd say that depends on the quality. But you're probably right. |

It's a bit expensive, but don't forget it has the same specs as flagship Xperia arc but smaller screen and no HDMI (it has front camera instead). There is £70 difference in price between arc and ray at play.com.

Neo also have the same specs, but Arc is clearly superior. Don't count on specs. They tell nothing about the quality of components.
Crap audio quality in video-recordings done by Neo, compared to those done by Arc. Who's to say Ray won't disappoint the same way in other areas. Won't surprise me one bit. |

I am currently trying to find out  My guess is that there is a TV out via MicroUSB. But that's just a guess atm

This could be a stupid question, but wondered if anyone knew whether the menu page can rotate to landscape mode? A small feature I know but would be useful to have! Thanks |

Or rather, this Dell Thunder:
...which is the best looking phone since the Nokia N95 1GB imho and completely unavailable in my part of the world. The ray is a very desirable phone, if it had a 4"+ screen it would be a must have.
