@Surur:

No, but adding a ground-up implementation of Exchange support and releasing a full third-party SDK IS bigger than enabling a very slightly faster network standard (that was supported in hardware but merely didn't have software support until they bothered releasing the patch) and activating a chip you had sitting dormant in the device. Multi-delete in MobileMail.app is just a nice touch :)

And I said most phones on the market - Sprint is one of the few carriers that actually does a decent job of supporting its customers with firmware updates (see: Treo updaters, Mogul), but even they haven't come close to what Apple's done in the time since the iPhone's launch, and they certainly don't release things as quickly. The Mogul's patch was the exception, not the rule.
