Why only six phones?

However, we’d expect this same firmware to hit all 2011 Xperia handsets bar the Xperia PLAY. Therefore, Xperia arc S, Xperia mini and Xperia ray users shouldn’t be up in arms just yet. The reason it is not showing yet is most likely down to a delay in the certification hitting the PTCRB website.

I think that sony should give the arc s jb, as they still produced that phone till april 2012.
Its realitively new

if this is  a global release and not a region specific update, then of course you will have it on the update service. Slightly_smiling_Face

Nah that can't be true... first it's an old article and second this is the only one site that confirms it... I've tried to search in other sites but no results about that.

Although it is not true, we might expect Xperia 2011 to get an update if their testing is a fact, as they say theyre activly investigating about it
