I think you will find it hard to find anywhere where I called anything a problem.

We were discussing length of life cycles. Those are measured in months. And it was said that the Nokia device 5800 had updates after two years. It was however very inaccurate. A 24 month active life cycle is considerably better than a 13 month active life cycle, and also better than a 18 month active life cycle. I would much like a 24 month active life cycle with firmware updates and bugfixes for my Nokia device - the N900. Frankly, I am not sure we even get a 13 month life cycle.

Of course, we need also discuss the lifecycles of MORE Nokia devices before we find an average to base expectations on.

You brought in 13 months as your "round up" number. If you consider +/- 11 months in expectations of life cycle length splitting hair, then you have really thick hair.
