            Sony is a part of them.
            Sony works on Xperia S at the AOSP.

              I am an android & ios user. Honestly I see no lag on my htc vivid but its the occasional bugs on android that get to me. And sometimes the inconsistency in its performance.

                android is laggy, 11 Nov 2012what??? im using android and its very laggy... i swear this... moreWhat? Again. All computers lag. Its called life. there is no such thing as perfection. Get the picture? If you believe otherwise you are stupid. No i did not call you stupid...that is unless you believe otherwise. The difference is while android may sometimes have a couple more hiccups its not that big of a difference. But in the same perspective they give you more freedom, customization, personalization, and all around functionality that all others may never offer. Having an android is the closest thing to a true and full computer system. So what. IOS launches apps and cant truly multi task so it lags slightly less. Android is for everyone and conforms to everyone and its only getting way way better as time goes on

                            So this means it's Sony that will be in charge of subsequent updates to the AOSP (and not Google).

                            Hum, thanks but NO thanks!
                            We already know the level of support Sony gives to their phones, this was just a way to get the hype going about how a Sony phone would get direct Google support.

                            Well, now we know it hasn't so goodbye any hopes of misleading anyone into thinking that (myself included. I was considering an Xperia S because of this AOSP support. Now I am NOT!).
