Sony Ericsson have confirmed that the world's fist PLayStation certified smartphone, the Xperia Play will have shipping delays. This would basically mean that it will be missing it's April 1 launching in the UK which I posted about before.
The delay is due to a problem with Sony Ericsson's delivery process. Customers who have pre-ordered the device over at Vodafone UK, reported to SlashGear. The Swedish company politely responded to this issue by releasing an official statement.
"We can confirm that the Xperia™ PLAY handsets are still planned to launch in the UK for 1st April, as originally communicated. However, as of today, we have experienced a freight issue that may impact the number of Xperia™ PLAYs arriving at some retail outlets. This said, consumers can purchase Xperia™ PLAY as of April 1st at a number of stores across the UK." - Sony EricssonVodafone have also released their own statement regarding this issue.
"Sony Ericsson has advised us that it will not be able to supply the Sony Ericsson Xperia Play and Arc devices to meet their original launch date of 1 April. Unfortunately, this means there will be a small delay before pre-order customers receive their orders and the device is made available for sale in our shops.
We’re working closely with Sony Ericsson to ensure our customers’ phones are delivered as soon as possible and we will contact people directly with specific timescales when we know more.
We appreciate this is disappointing and are doing our very best to resolve this as quickly as possible." - Vodafone UK
