Remember what we’ve told you about Xperia 2011 phones don’t getting Jelly Bean updates? We got that information from Sony’s Facebook page, but the problem is that it wasn’t Sony Mobile’s PR representative from the HQ that answered questions at a Q&A session, but a local spokesperson. So those of you with Xperia 2011 may get their Jelly Bean fixes after all.
Nothing is still confirmed except that Sony is “actively investigating Android OS upgrades for all devices,” reminding us that they still have to rollout Ice Cream Sandwich on many phones and only then focus their attention on Android 4.1.
Seems to me Sony is everything but ready for the firmware updates. It’s not like they don’t have resources to pull this out, it’s just that those resources are somehow unequally spread. It’s the post-sale service that makes for loyal customers and thus far the Japanese company failed to impress us.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
