Overall, I think it's a well balanced phone. Slim phones are very much in and it's also launching 'soon' with Gingerbread. Mmmmm, tasty!

Silver is definitely my choice... it`s weird but when I look at it I have the same impression with what I had when I saw flat TV for the very first time. 
And if Arc is going to be released at the end of March we may have 2.4 on board as well. |

FROM DEVELOPER WORLD
As mentioned, one cool feature of this smartphone is its integrated support for ANT+ technology. This means that you will be able to use the Sony Ericsson Xperia™ arc with a large number of commercial health and fitness products. For example, you can use your phone with a heart rate monitor, pedometer, or both, when you are out running.
There are number of different ANT+ enabled sensors and devices available in on the market today. In addition to a large number of ANT+ supported apps to collect, analyze, compare and share your data in various ways. These devices and apps can turn your Sony Xperia™ arc into a main hub for fitness and health activities, as well as for communication and entertainment.

It's not that I don't believe that they are gonna update the Arc to next versions of android, but I highly doubt if it will be honeycomb. The interface is just too tablet-like and doesn't seem fitting for phones.... |

What I got from the article was an acknowledgement that they made a mistake by not launching their phones with the latest version of Android, so whether it's Honeycomb or Ice-cream, I don't think too many people will be bothered as long as they don't leave it too long before they do update.

A very nice phone indeed. The design is amazing. Its Vivaz all over again. Ugly in the spyshots but f***ing beautiful in real life and promotional pictures. Funny how outdated iphone design and even x10 feels in comparison in rogs video. Someone described it as a concept phone made real and I really agree. Good job SE! Silver arc will be a nice birthday present for myself : |

loving the design...finally a touchscreen phone that looks sexy! IMO x10 and maybe iphone4 have been the only touchscreen phones previously which have looked nice! but this phone is way better designwise than any other touchscreen phone on the market! this alone would help it sell quite well
one thing i m a little disappointed about though is that  have still decided not to add better codec support...like divx and xvid....c'mon a phone with reality display and bravia engine...but no great codec support??? do they still expect everyone to keep converting videos to enjoy on that screen! i think this is quite a shame...and really hope they include these codecs natively in the future as most other manufacturers seem to be doing!
while there is no mention of sound equaliser i do remember seeing in the gingerbread demo it had better support for dsp and stuff in media....and they did have some kind of equaliser if i am not wrong...so hopefully it is there

SE really succeed this one. 
I mean it's a big step forward for the company undoubtably, the missing thing is the front facing camera and we will have to see how multitasking does work but the device seem blazing fast.

I wonder how this would fair in your pocket? Looks like the headphone socket is on the side and not on the top. So, you would have you headphones sticking out at the side. Possibly might bend it or break it in a pocket? Wonder if the stock SE ones will be L shaped or straight shaped.
Sexy looking though, and is different from the run of the mill slabs you see these days.
Why not reverse the HDMI port on top with the headphone port on the side. I am sure most people will listen to music than be jacked into an HDMI socket?
Cheers,

A few new photos taken by Xperia Arc (LT15i): http://picasaweb.google.com/l[....]G&cuname=ulfmjonsson&filter=1#
And even more photos by Hallon (MT15i) http://picasaweb.google.com/ulfmjonsson/2011Skridsko#
There are definitely room for improvements
