Justin Timberlake is a known Sony spokesperson but, he’s also a known BlackBerry user. Recent photos and Twitter updates suggest he’s now ditched BlackBerry for Android. A recent Tweet from the celebrity, said it had come in via Twitter for Android. This left Engadget hunting for photos of the celebrity in possession of an Android phone.

What they dug up, is a photo of Justin Timberlake carrying an Xperia X10, from Sony Ericsson. However, this also led to rumours that Timberlake could have an X10 running Android 2.1 or even 2.2. The Tweet was sent through the Twitter Android application, which is only available on Android handsets running 2.1 or above, which the X10 doesn’t have yet, for consumers anyway. Could Justin Timberlake been have given the celebrity treatment for his handset? While that is possible, it’s more likely that he has more than one handset, or someone manages his Twitter account, which are both more likely possibilities.

One of the most popular Twitter clients on the iPhone is making it’s way to the Android Community. TweetDeck will soon be released for Android. A beta version has been released this week. Unfortunately however, the beta version is only available for Android 2.0 and above, something which the Xperia X10 currently lacks. In the post which makes the beta public however, it has been stated that once the final version is released, it will come with support for 1.6. Which if the company are quick to release the full version, may be a relief for X10 owners, if we still haven’t got 2.1 on Sony Ericsson’s Xperia X10. You can keep up with the latest developments of TweetDeck on their blog here.
