My almost two year-old HTC Thunderbolt was supposed to be the "next big thing" when I bought it. It finally got upgraded to ICS Saturday (yes ... 2/9/2013) morning. It takes an effort to support the hardware you produce, but if you're putting people into two year contracts, it's pretty pathetic that the upgrade finally occurred within two months of my renewal (OTOH, I won't be trading this for another HTC phone as I've learned my lesson).

I'm another person that's perfectly content with my iPad 1, I have a laptop that's working great (with Ubuntu) after 6 years and I tend to wear things out before I upgrade. I was disappointed with Apple's "throw-away" chassis on the new MacBook Pro and it seems like the trend is only getting worse.

Heh...same phone, but my plan upgrade came the day they deployed the update. I learned my lesson too...bought a Samsung.

I'm leaning towards a Samsung phone as well ... which model did you pick and how do you like it (so far)?

I got the galaxy S3. So far it is amazing. It is great in all the technical features and despite the larger screen it is lighter and more comfortable in my pocket. And the battery lasts twice as long as my thunderbolt at its end of life.
