I have an Xperia Sola and I read Sony doesn't plan to roll out Jelly Bean for it like they do for their other mobile phones. I guess this is what I get for choosing the Sola over something more expensive from them. Sony (and other Japanese) products are usually more expensive than competing products from Samsung, LG, or other non-Japanese companies, and I guess they either really want to bother only with high margin products or they have a cost disadvantage. Sony knows they have the brand value to price high but its clearly causing lots of folks to buy from the other guys instead.

So they're basically looking to drop mobiles production at all? Because the 'high end' Sony phones behave like cheap Samsungs or HTCs. Dashing through current lineup Sony left me with deep dissatisfaction - they're all so sloooow
