Whose fault is it that manufacturers cant turn a profit? Is Google suppose to give a handout to them when it gives them the source code to Android? Google provides the patch for the software. It is up the manufacturers to get it to their phones. Google is being the responsible one here if you ask me. Its the manufacture not providing support for their product who is at fault here.
