Yep, and that is why I often suggest unbranded phones (aka phones that are not under carrier control for updates). With good companies like Sony, you would usually get at least 1 - 2 updates.

Or, get a nexus directly from google (Verizon often witholds updates)

Or even better, get a Windows Phone. Every single windows phone 7 got all the updates, and every single windows phone 8 is guranteed to give at least 18 months worth of updates (starting from launch day). Even LG(who is horrible with updates), rolled out all the updates for their Windows Phones.
