I have the SonyEricsson XPERIA X10i, it was not scheduled for Gingerbread but SE gave in to the community and released an update to 2.3.3.

I also read on the SE blog recently that SE have donated programming assistance and hardware to a group of MOD's on XDA in an attempt to support the community.

Anyways, the community on XDA already work on releasing ICS for a large number of phones and they will most likely succeed well ahead of the official releases. One of the guys on vagcars.dk wrote the other day that he's now running a pre-release of ICS (Ice Cream Sandwich aka. Android 4.0) on his Nexus S...

The power of Open Source vs. "dictatorware" ;-)

Seriously, how many people upgrade their phones unless they have problems with it, and then it's most likely to be done by a service centre ;-)

90% of the owners don't care about software as long as the phone and SMS part works..
