you buy a device, you get what's in the box. that's what you pay for. whatever comes then - third party apps, firmware updates,.... - can happen, may happen, will most likely happen. but: there's no way you could actually *expect* it.

so when you bought your phone thinking there'll be this update for bug fixes and then that update for new features etc, you're bound to be disappointed.
There was no such expectation when the mobiles were simple and nobody even knew there was something like an OS to control its functions. The problem begun when we started saying "I will reboot my phone" instead of "turn off/on". In a few months/years probably we will hear people complaining about the release of a FW upgrade for their cars, which may bring an option to increase the acceleration by tuning the fuel injection system...
