“You see, I had in my possession one of the first Android
devices, a Motorola Cliq XT that ran Android 1.4. It turned out to
be one of many phones that later became infamous for not receiving
any further Android updates; Motorola decided it couldn’t get
Android 2.x running well enough on the Cliq, so it simply abandoned
any future upgrades. A whole galaxy of ‘Droid software — even such
obvious staples as Amazon’s Kindle application — was out of my
reach unless I bought a new phone.”
