Doubt it, think about it

Kit Kat its not out yet nor the Nexus 5

once the Nexus 5 with KitKat its released it will be few weeks before google release the source code 

by then perhaps Sony will be about to release the 2014 flagship in January and then work on older Xperias to see which will be supported and get kit kat update 

The Xperia Sola its almost 18months old, which means that its at the end of it's life cycle. 

That's my opinion

Its not going to happen, you know that the Xperia Sola's last major update was 4.0, not 4.1 nor 4.2 nor 4.3.

it doesn't  require to update in sequentia manner it can directly jum into 4.4 it's not a issue,the 4.4 is main designed to run on low end devices which have 512mb ram.if i am not wrong this was possible because  it was built on  new kernel version3.4 or 3.8 i am not sure which has better memory management.

I am aware that it doesn't have to follow the sequence, but lets be realistic, you know that its not going to happen. It'll be great that not just Sony but all companies release the latest update to their phones but that's unlikely.

yes you are right these manufacturers want to sell there hardware(phones) after that they will not bother about the software updates unless it s a flagship phone.

it's been nice conversating with you.

Anytime, you should check the XDA Forum, and look into a custom ROM  Slightly_smiling_Face
