    Android is kinda funny. You never know when updates gonna come, you never know if the updates gonna be available for your phone, and you don't know how long you have to wait the update to be finally available for your phone. And if you have a sony ericsson android, well, you'll have to accept that you are the unwanted child lying on the floor, at the corner of the house, in the android family, feeding only on those left over by the loved and pampered child nexus.

      Still no update to 2.1 for GSM HTC Hero. By the time we get it, the Hero will be released almost a year and Android 2.2 will be widely released. This will be my last HTC phone for sure! Too bad...

                  That's always nice about android. WHen they release a new version, you know it takes at least 6 to have it ported fro your device.
