Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc goes on UK presale for April delivery

Have £460 ($732), British residency, and a hankering for gently-sculpted, mega-thin phones running Gingerbread? Well, then, you might want to consider browsing over to Play.com, where Sony Ericsson's rather attractive Xperia Arc has recently gone on pre-order -- certainly not the cheapest phone in the world, but at least that's an unlocked, unbranded price. The site is listing the phone as "due for release" on April 1st, though -- just like any handset in the world -- that's subject to plenty of wiggle room, especially this far out. Get out your credit cards, folks!
