Just chalk it up to cell carriers continuing the tradition of de-prioritizing OS upgrades and focusing on upcoming phones. Sprint got you for two years, else termination fee, else re-up contract with new device. Enthusiasts, who make the most stink about OS upgrades and other issues/wants, make up a small minority.
If HTC/Sprint 2.2 is gold next month, great! Early Christmas then! Else I'll hold out for Evo2 with GB in 2011.  |
Say that again? Like I have said in a few posts here and there over the same topic, everyone basically isn't/wasn't expecting anything from sprint or other major carriers as far as OS upgrades but like I said in my post right before yours that android is where its at and building market share and customers it whats gonna make or break these company's. I was totally speculating but from a business stand point I knew sprint couldn't afford to wait to put froyo on their flagship device epecially when we all know other carriers are rushing to get theirs out as well. This isn't the battle of winmo, no one ever battled for winmo, atleast not recently so any one judging sprint or any other carrier based on how fast winmo was upgraded isn't too bright.
