AT&T Blocking Nokia N8 Update, Due To Win7 Phone?

[palandri]

I have an unlocked GSM Nokia N8 and I have been patiently waiting for the Nokia N8 "Anna" update. The rest of the world has received the update.

There's a post over at the NokiaUSA forum that says AT&T will agree to sell Nokia Win7 phones as long as they stop selling unlocked GSM phones and stop updating unlocked GSM phones in the U.S.

I hope this isn't true!

That sounds exactly like something US carriers would do.

So it is a believable story. Not sure if it's really true though.
