It's already been confirmed Sony Erricson doesn't use it on their devices. If you have a branded device however, you may have it installed the carrier. If you wan't to find out if it's on your device you can download this App. It won't remove it however, it only tells you if it's there. I ran it just to see how the app worked and it told me my Xperia is clean (Unbranded handset on O2/formerly on Orange)

This appears to be active on AT&T Xperia Play. Hopefully it gets removed in future updates.

Of course I used a different scanner. One recommended by the reviewer of one of the linked apps.

Yep, My Xperia Play 4G from AT&T shows that it indeed has it. Bummer.

Does anyone know what the actual app/service is called on the XP AT&T?
