You are referring to an official release from Sony?
That's what they say:
If you’ve got a 2011 model, however, here’s the schedule for the phased rollout: starting in late March, the Xperia arc S, Xperia neo V and Xperia ray will get their skinned Android 4.0 goodness, while owners of the Xperia arc, Xperia PLAY, Xperia neo, Xperia mini and mini pro, Xperia pro and Xperia active will have to wait a month longer till late April.

If you are referring to any release: There are already very good working ROMs here on xda. Games, HDMI, front and backcamera working. And of course WLAN, GPS, UMTS and so on:

I don't want to sound rude or anything. I'm new to this board. But I think you should have hit the Thanks Button instead of replying.
But anyway, glad I could help.

Hello everyone. We’d like to bring you up to speed with recent developments in our Android 4.0 software rollout.
First up, the rollout plans for the Xperia NXT series (Xperia S, Xperia P and Xperia U) are progressing as planned. The first smartphone to be upgraded will be Xperia S, starting from the end of June. Then Xperia P will follow, whilst Xperia U will receive it a little later in Q3. As always we will keep you in the loop with the latest info as soon as we can.
For our 2011 range, as you know, we began our Ice Cream Sandwich software upgrade with Xperia arc S, Xperia ray and Xperia neo V last month.
Now, we are happy to confirm that the remaining 2011 smartphones; Xperia arc, Xperia neo, Xperia mini, Xperia mini pro, Xperia pro, Xperia active and Sony Ericsson Live with Walkman will start to receive their updates starting from next week.
This software upgrade will be Android version 4.0.4 and the good news is that this latest version will also be made available for Xperia arc S, Xperia ray and Xperia neo V users, who received Android 4.0.3 the first time around.
In regards to Xperia PLAY, after extensive in house testing with our developer teams and working with our partners, we have concluded that a consistent and stable experience, particularly with gaming, cannot be guaranteed for this smartphone on Ice Cream Sandwich – therefore, we will not make the Android 4.0 upgrade available for Xperia PLAY.
This decision was also verified when we received similar feedback from the developer community; both experienced developers and advanced users, along with game content providers following our ICS beta ROM for unlocked Xperia PLAY smartphones.
Our priority has and always will be, to provide the best possible user experience on Xperia smartphones. In this instance the ICS upgrade would have compromised stability, where we look to ensure a quality gaming experience with games optimized and developed for Xperia PLAY.
As always, feel free to drop us a comment or question below.

There is not said, that update is released to all devices to all regions during this week. The whole update project to named devices begins this week and lasts until they have done everything for devices receiving the update.
The whole team is in progress of uploading thousands of firmwares and now they also occured server problems probably due to massive uploading and downloading. It all takes long time.
And yes, they said end May/early June. It begon end May. They started like they said, what's the problem?
Now please, calm down, be a bit patient and stop spamming the topic. I know you are all excited and so impatient, but please, that's not a reason to spam. Go outside, have some fun, it is pointless to wait hours behind computer, waiting for the update, finally going to sleep without it. You can't miss the update, it will be available for long time.
When a update comes, then it will be announced/posted, I will update this topic when I see something new, on Sony forums the SI lists are updated when new firmwares are available etc.

msm7x30 is chipset model...
What news brings kernel 3.0.8??
Kamarush don't use it in his works because it's not fully stable yet... Maybe something is change?

Honestly I can't tell you what it brings but, if Sony is giving it to us, it might be stable. The latest version released was 3.4.0, so I think 3.0.8 might be far from stable by now. Dunno why kamarush says it is unstable, should we ask him?
Anyways, are you guyz serious when you say that a fw won't be released before its registered here? http://www.ptcrb.com/vendor/complete/view_complete_request_guest.cfm?modelid=19510

uhh guys 4.1.A.0.562 was certified for arc s on 30 mar and released around mid april....... certificate for wt19i is still not certified ... how can they release it next week then ??
http://www.ptcrb.com/vendor/complete/view_complete_request_guest.cfm?modelid=20152
Is that a rule? I mean, the fw could be ready for mass distribution and just waiting for certification... Maybe that site is delayed? Because if Sony will actually release fw for ALL 2011 phones, they might have tons of work to certify everthing.
Just my 2 cents, though.

hmmm ya maybe....
I wonder after we upgrade to ics, we will lose root or not?
Btw, when ics came, I'm waiting for someone to taste it first. If one complains due to slow performance and such, id rather not upgrading but we'll see

What does it mean ? Is Sony Tablet has non-unlockable bootloader or my bad english plays a bad game on me?
My Question
When will you release the bootloader key for Sony Tablet S ?
Reply from [email protected]
Hi,
Since the Sony Tablet S was created in another team than Sony Mobile the opportunity to add an unlockable bootloader on this tablet was not possible.
Sorry to bring you the bad news.

Yes, but it's clearly KitKat on an official Sony device, and Sony said that the ZU, Z1 etc. will be the first ones to get KK. The screenshot is probably from the Z1.

considering that Sony have synced the builds on the Z1 and ZU I have hopes that it will roll out at the same time, maybe the 15 or 16 of Feb?
