With smartphones and especially Androids it's always about the future updates. And while some devices don't get as much attention from its makers as others, LG hopes to provide at least one next-version...

          I can bet "at least 1 version update" means exactly 1 update :D

            If Android updates release gets closer, one next version is sure to get updated as fast as today. Commitment with time is better, two years for example. Or even, as long as Google didn't raise the hardware specs.

              unfortunately one-level update may also mean 2.2 ---> 2.2.X or so..
              this's absolutely a brilliant tricky statement from LG :\

                  Hopefully they release their phones with the latest version too then, not with Froyo and then Gingerbread later.

                  HTC seems to be the best with updating at the moment, as they announced last week that the Desire (as well as Desire HD and Desire Z) would get a Gingerbread update, so that is 2 major updates for the Desire.

                  Maybe a Desire is still a good buy then, it just needs a longer life battery for about £30 for 1800mAh and it is good to go.

I know my phone is capable of handling Gingerbread but some OEM out there decided not to spend money on making 2.3 available to us. I'm thinking of moving back to iPhone so I'll be guaranteed to receive updates for at least 2 years but Android has the cutting edge that I want.

                            2.0 > 2.1 is one upgrade. And nobody cares about that.
