right there with ya
After owning the AT&T One X(L), I know well that feeling of being screwed. What this announcement amounts to is an unofficial declaration by HTC that they don't intend to support their devices for even the duration of a contract. If you get a year, count yourself lucky. Their behavior with the One X(L) is precisely why I won't buy another HTC product. I simply don't trust them. The GS3 was dropped to 99¢ on contract, and Samsung still got it at least one more update. And may even have another. Shame.

They don't make the contracts, the providers do? You the a 1 year warranty. That's all they guarantee. They make no money from updating phones that are passed end of life. They know most of the people who bought the phone in 2012 will be changing phones in the next year, anyway.
Maybe if people didn't insist on new phones every two years, manufacturers would be more willing to keep models on the market longer and add features.

What did you want in a new software update?
