Ummmmm...

I think there are four different models here:

1. Upgrades are impossible, other than by buying a new handset

2. Upgrades are possible but painful to install (e.g., traditional WinMo)

3. Upgrades are easy (e.g., iPhone upgrade-in-place via iTunes)

4. Upgrades are forced down your throat (which might cover iPhone too --
I'm not sure how their upgrade model works, exactly)

Bear in mind that, except in model #4, you *still* need to say users "have
to have an Android phone with software version 1.1.56 build 6 or better".
After all, just because an upgrade is available doesn't mean the upgrade
has been applied...unless it's forced down your throat. That's no
different than "you need Windows XP Service Pack 2 to run this program".

My personal "sweet spot" is model #3, but that's just me.
