It’s no secret that Android is a great platform with sales numbers and an installbase to prove it. However, due to the massive number of devices on the market powered by the platform, Android versions are plentiful. This poses a threat to developers who are looking to release software that take advantage of the latest features while still incorporating a large portion of the Android userbase. Luckily, hardware manufacturers have been decent at getting the latest updates out by some devices are still trailing behind.
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10, for instance, is one device that just only recently got the Android 2.1 update leaving consumers wondering if the Froyo update will ever roll around. Fortunately, a ray of hope seems to have shown its face in the form of a Turkish customer support letter, shown above.
While we aren’t the most well versed in this language, this letter states that we may be seeing Android 2.2 for the Xperia X10 sometime in Q2 2011. Yes it’s late, but better late than never right? Of course before you get too excited make note that this is not officially confirmed so it could be complete hogwash.
We’ll keep you posted.

 I don’t know if we reported on this before, but I’ve just heard plans that Apple intends to ditch an integrated SIM card for the iPhone.
Of course, there isn’t any confirmation as yet, but it looks like the supposed plan to have customers easily transfer their service from one carrier to the other without obtaining a new device is SIM card looks shot.
If this is true, then it means that the way we do the iPhone (no choice of carrier) will stay the same.

 I’m surprised that we haven’t covered that Anzu, a tablet by Sony Ericsson to possibly be the Android Gingerbread flagship.
Apparently, someone in Russia is testing it out, but with Android 2.1. It should be available early in 2011 with Android 2.2 and then shift to Gingerbread (Android 2.3).
Just to let you know, the 4.3 inch display will have 854 x 480 resolution, 800 MHz Qualcomm MSM7230, and a 12 Megapixel camera.
I’m sure we’ll be hearing more about this in the future.

In this day and age if a smartphone doesn’t have all of the features another does it ill get picked apart ruthlessly. Luckily, thanks to the top notch software engineering team at many of these smartphone manufacturers features are continuously added following their initial release.
One such example of this is the Xperia X10 from Sony Ericsson. When originally announced, SE let us know that the device did not feature multitouch support and would not be getting it due to the fact that the included hardware simply wouldn’t support it. Luckily, it was made known today that SE will in fact be bringing multitouch to the Xperia X10 in the near future.
Unfortunately, if you’re looking for full fledged multitouch support, you’re going to be disappointed. It seems that SE will only be bringing limited multitouch support to the device including pinch to zoom in the web browser and Google Maps. Then again, what other multitouch do you really need (besides for games)?
