Actually not the case- the Samsung Focus S has been waiting for an update for months. AT&T said they weren't going to release it at all until public opinion managed to force their hand.

I suspect Nokia is very different. In fact, I think if the schedules had been different, Nokia would have been the sole hardware provider for WP.

I've got a Dell WP7 phone. Microsoft has a long B2B relationship with them.

I doubt they would jeopardize that for a Nokia exclusive. It's not really in Microsoft's DNA.

Perhaps not, but it seems that Dell isn't really interested in making any more anyway:

MS may have had to persuade Dell to make a phone, not the other way around.

BS! Samsung Focus S already has the Mango release. What update are talking about here? There was no major update after Mango that I know of.

It's mostly a bug fix release, but there's one big one- the keyboard keeps disappearing when you're typing on it. Infuriating. I had to force update my phone.
