makes more sense than what I thought. the different screen size part of it does, anyway. With Android, the manufacturers decide which phones get upgrades and which don't, right? and it was hit or miss for ICS, wasn't it? With Apple, there's only Apple, and the oldest devices fall off the supported list regularly. All the current ones get updates. So it's a little different in that sense.
