Earlier this month, news came in that The Xperia S handset was to recieve it’s anticipated Android 4.0 or Ice Cream Sandwich update a little earlier than expected. A member of the Sony forum support team had posted saying that the ICS update for the Xperia S was coming out late May early June.  This news brought much excitement amongst Xperia S owners. Unfortunately, the information given on the official Sony Mobile forums at this time was incorrect and the company have moved to rectify this information. The support staff member himself has changed his original post and reposted giving the correct details that the Android 4.0 update for the Xperia S is actually due in the latter part of Q2. See the image post below for his full explanation:

Disappointing to learn that the update isn’t coming sooner however, it seems like a genuine slip-up and a genuine apology has been made. A little longer to wait will hopefully be a little longer for Sony to make sure any bugs are ironed out prior to the update being made available for the Xperia S.

Despite their recent ‘boo-boo’ when they mistakenly posted news of their offering of 50GB of cloud storage space free for Xperia owners, Sony Ericsson have moved to confirm that the offer should go live soon, just not as soon as they announced it would on their official blog.

Xperia handset owners should, at some point in the near future, be entitled to a whopping 50GB of storage, via an app on Xperia handsets (which will be downloaded from the Android Market) through cloud storage provider Box in a deal struck between themselves and Sony Ericsson.

“On Monday afternoon, we mistakenly posted a promo offering Xperia owners 50 GB of free storage via the Box for Android mobile app. While we’re really excited about working with Box down the road, this offer is not active today. We are in the midst of finalising the details of this promotion and are working to provide this offer very soon to all Xperia customers so stay tuned” -Sony Ericsson.
