xperia play

[wilkesneil]

does anyone have an official release date on this phone?
i have seen 7th march on the net but none of the big shops have dates.
o2 have no info, phones 4 u have no info, carphone warehouse reckon 31st march (at midnight - or its an april fool)
seems that its the little shops and 1 seller on ebay is taking pre-orders for the phone that he reckons he'll have around 1st march.
just been trying to compare prices so i can pre-order 1 from a well known shop rather than some little shop (trust issue) but found out nothing as i want 1 on the day of release.
