2.3! I wish I could get to 2.2

With HTC and many other vendors locking phones to android 2.1 things (e.g. htc hero) are worse than highlihgted here. Many phones come with 18-24 month contracts. The makers of the phones are refusing to offer the newer OS's for phones that may only be a few months old leaving users stuck with insecure versions.

If my phone is attacked due to their negligence who is to blame?

Shame on them
