I've heard that lots of Android phones have been stuck on old releases, but I didn't get the impression that this was specifically a Verizon problem. In any case, it's an interesting problem for the industry as more consumers buy smartphones- upgrades to "regular" cell phones are rarely needed. Maybe they're hoping you'll just renew your contract and buy the phone du jour.
