This is not Microsoft's fault. It's all the device-manufacturer's fault. THEY ought to provide at regular intervals firmware updates to their fones. M$ provide the building blocks and then it's up to the manufacturers to get new firmwares out. It's the same with those dumbfones. Everybody is always waiting to get new features (or at least genuine improvements) in newer firmware but in the end users always complain that their fone isn't being suported much to soon.
In the case of winmo-devices those stupid manufacturors have it easy because majority of the OS development is done by microsoft. In fact look at what rate forums like XDA churn out new winmo-updates. Every new build gets notices by these forums and worked on the get on many devices. While the manufacturors don't even bother. So I think we really ought to stop blaming Microsoft and start targetting Samsung. HTC and all those other greedy bastards who GET the new builds from M$ but don't channel them down to us, paying customers!!!
