Lol, if play it that way, sure that would be no Android device that has received more than 1 update. Because in order to achieve two updates (as you count it), that phone should have been released at Donut (i.6), then upgraded to the 2 version (eclair, froyo, gingerbread), then the Ice Cream Sandwich (4).
Problem is, I don’t think the numbering works that way. Donut to eclair was a pretty masive functionality updates, froyo introduce a new interface, gingerbread grants major performance improvement, the ics sees another ui overhaul and performance improvement.
Well, numbering issues appart, I agree that Apple supports their device much better and longer than all of Android oems. There phones that have been neglected when they are barely a year old. So hats off to Apple.
