Google’s Jean-Baptiste Queru has pointed out that he is not sure how far this project will go, but they are trying and will see as it goes.
Previously, only Nexus devices and Xoom were getting AOSP support, but the situation seems to be changing now. We won’t get our hopes up right now, but will sure be keeping track of Xperia S’s experiments with AOSP.
Why did Google opt for Xperia S rather than several other devices in the market?
In Google’s words – It’s a powerful current GSM device, with an unlockable bootloader, from a manufacturer that has always been very friendly to AOSP.
