Apple's iPhone users are lucky thus far, I suspect the original iPhones may be getting the great shove-off at some point, at which they're stuck. Ditto for any carrier-provided Android phone, unless the buyer *gasp* turns to the community for updates.

So you're saying that buyers should essentially spread lies, based on specious bits of information.

Or from any other vendor, for that matter. I don't know of any who have provided OS upgrades more than a year out, if ever, aside from Apple and they were essentially the first to offer such extended support.
