Sony Japan has confirmed that sales of its 9.4-inch Xperia Tablet S will resume gradually from mid-November. Sales were suspended after the company discovered a manufacturing defect on some units that allowed water to breach its water-resistant chassis. This was due to a minor space between the display panel and the back of the product.
Sony is currently offering a free inspection and repair service in most territories, so if you are worried about the splash-proof performance of your tablet you should get in touch with your local Sony centre.
