So far, HTC’s web site has been among the most annoying on the internet (along with Sprint’s) - you had to give up your email address and get an account in order to get ROM updates for your (purchased) device.
According to SmartphoneThoughts, the company has now seen the light of day. From now on, you just need to enter the serial number of your machine in order to get your hands on updates.
P.S. Other device makers give out updates to everyone. I consider it somewhat likely that HTC intends to introduce “tracking information” into the updates eventually…which could be very helpful when it comes to quenching the flow of “inofficial updates” seen at xda-developers…
