agreed they did.... and perhaps it was a little unfair of me!!!! Might have been nice also that they had kept us better informed in the first place. Im slightly unsure what that emoti at the end of the paragraph denotes.? Perhaps if the update had been signed off which im led to believe it would have to be if a release is due within 24 hours (this is the case within our firm)... it might have been nice if sony actually suprised everyone and delivered things ahead of schedule.. not to mention a roll out delivered in such away does not have everone clambering for it at the same time.

but as you rightly stated its tomorrow its due to drop and in mean time we will wait and hope Sony are true to their word...

"did you not get the email"

This thread is more directed to sonys lack of comms. We are all aware finally that ics will have according to sony worldwide release by May end chayton, but it has taken us many, many weeks from US roll out on this forum to get any news and we didnt even get any info until this thread broke news on cnet. We were also just pointing out that it would be nice if sony would for once do something ahead of schedule and this would aid the roll out even if it was just by 24 hours..!!

well its the 31st and we still have 16 and a half hours  to go.... the countdown and saga continues...

Its what ive said from the start when I started this thread , communication is key. Its not so much about the update timing, its the way in wich sony must learn to communicate with the public.

Even more so than ever in this digital age with twitter, facebook, a myriad of www. sites, not to mention publications like stuff and t3. Theres simply no excjse at getting your message out. Its also interesting to see just that, when its good news like sonys facebook  page mentioning their nominations in t3 magazine they sing it from the rooftops, we have been snubbed here since I started this thread back in April, not one official line from sony...

I find the best routefor rolling out software as it must be signed of at least 24 hours in advance is to pick a date eg,  1st June  then roll it out 24 hours early, that way you find people arrive at updating at different  times, you dont have everyone clambering for it and it looks good on the company...

The roll out on the Xperia Arc S was done very swiftly I have a hunch it was to do more with the ericsson crew rather sonys side tho... would like some one to clarify that just out of personal interest.

anyway the countdown continues, and I keep hearing it will be today but no eta..

sony start reading these forums as it will cost you in the long term...

hope you all get your updates!!!!!!

sorry if im like a dog with a bone some times.. would just like us all to be appreciated by sony and not seen as disposable ...

take care all...

Ps Sony announce Jelly bean... lol, yerh right... see you all for round 2

I posted on the other thread, typing now on ics is a dream compared to previous! A marked improvement, Thalamus do you know if it was just us UK or the whole of Europe? dogman a user of this forum has nothing yet in Finland, any info for him...?

thanks sony for keeping to that date here, I stand by what I say re comms but must add the pad dose feel like it has a new lease of life!
