Following on from the official existence of the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play, most of the UK mobile networks took the opportunity to tell its customers that it planned to stock the handset. O2 and Orange/T-Mobile tweeted their plans, whilst Pocket-Lint has it on good terms that it will be heading Vodafone’s way soon too. The only network that remained quiet was Three, but we’d be surprised if it didn’t end up there at some point.
Interestingly, Orange also confirmed that the phone will be released in April, which is likely to be the same for other networks. This would put it in the same timeframe as the Xperia arc. In related news, Rogers is believed to carry the handset exclusively when it launches in Canada according to Mobile Syrup. There are no confirmed launch details for the US right now.
Update: As expected, Three UK has confirmed it will be stocking the Xperia Play.
