Sony Ericsson makes statement on Xperia PLAY delay

We have heard from Sony Ericsson in regards to the Xperia PLAY delay in the UK and this is what the manufacturer had to say: "We can confirm that the Xperia PLAY handsets are still planned to launch in the UK for April 1, as originally communicated. However, as of yesterday, 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 1 at a number of stores across the UK." There you have it, straight from the horse's mouth folks.
