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!!!

Sorry, we have it all wrong, the manufacture have plenty of updates. They are being sent out to all the unlocked phones that they sell.
the real culprits are the providers ( ie., ATT, Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile) they are the ones locking down the phones and restricting access to GPS (Verizon), and only allowing programs that they can charge more money for!!!!
the manufactures only provide their interface on top of "Mobile Phone 6.X.X" it is the providers that change the options on hardware and software that are available in a provider locked phone.
