Android 2.4 spotted on Sony Ericsson Xperia arc smartphone

It appears that Sony Ericsson's new Xperia arc Android powered smartphone could be running Android version 2.4, not the 2.3 version of Gingerbread that we were epxecting, based upon photos snapped of the device. Dutch site Tweakers.net claims to have handled the phone and noted some UI changes as well as a few new hooks for video chatting, including possible support for the same Google Talk video chat that is highlighted in Android 3.0 Honeycomb for tablets.
