Sprint’s Motorola Q9c has received a Windows Mobile 6.1 upgrade about three months ago – the update for the Verizon version of the box now tugs along slowly.
People wanting to get the upgrade must hit Motorola’s web site, and enter the date of purchase before a free update will be dispatched.
I am shocked to see that this update was not dispatched as I entered a purchase date three years ago: apparently, the company really restricts its updates to devices still in warranty. IMHO, this is completely outrageous – however, the “Lock” can easily be circumvented by entering a purchase date of January 2008 (there’s no need to provide a serial number of proof of purchase).
