UK online retailer Play.com is the first to announce dates and prices for the upcoming SIZZLING HOT Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc – and the phone comes with the premium price tag we’ve come to expect from Sony Ericsson.
Play will take your Xperia Arc pre-order right now in return for £459.99 – which puts the Android phone at the top-end of today’s unlocked phone price bracket. The good news it’s penciled in for launch on April 1st. Here’s the screencapture of truth:
We’re still keen, but are waiting to see if any of HTC’s rumoured new phones turn out to actually exist before entering into any new binding contracts. Link via IM.

I think when the HTC Desire was first announced the price was about £500 – I ended up preordering it on Play.com for £370ish and still got it as soon as it was released.
