Link: Firmware snub: Sony Ericsson relents | The Register

Last Tuesday, Sony Ericsson confirmed that owners of the P990i, W950 and M600i models would not see any further firmware updates. Yesterday morning, however, the company relented, in the face of a wave of angry feedback from Sony Ericsson customers and developers.

“In response to recent feedback from users and as a result of additional internal testing, Sony Ericsson has determined to offer a further firmware update for the P990 and W950 Walkman phone. This move illustrates Sony Ericsson’s ongoing commitment to its existing “smartphone” customers and the company’s desire to be responsive to customer feedback in order to provide an optimal user experience.”
