Xperia Arc/Play available for pre-order on Rogers, 'late April' release rumored

Canadian carrier Rogers now has pre-order pages up for Sony Ericsson's Xperia Arc and Xperia Play, following the phones' (slightly disrupted) European launch yesterday. Both phones will set Canadian buyers back C$99.99 upfront on any of Rogers' contracts, which range from C$50/month to C$75/month. While the Xperia Arc will only be available in black, Rogers is offering the Xperia Play in the lesser-spotted white as well.

The Rogers pre-order site doesn't list any release date. However, MobileSyrup is reporting via a leaked Rogers internal screen that both phones will see the light of day in "late April", with inventory arriving in stores between April 19 and 21. [Rogers, MobileSyrup]
