While the handset has only just been announced, the Xperia Arc had previously been spotted. With the announcement came confirmation that the Sony Ericsson Arc would come with Android 2.3, the latest version of Google Android available. However more images have surfaced of the handset, this time showing the X10 successor running Android 2.4. Android 2.4 is currently unreleased by Google. Android 2.4 will also be known as Gingerbread, just like 2.3 but, a different iteration. This will come before Google release Android 3.0, aka Honeycomb.
