Thumbs down OS7 Updates for Sprint Users ?

I follow news on Crackberry everyday, and i see that every other day BBOS7 updates are released, first by Verizon and now by WIND (Canada). I'm curious to know the reason why these updates are not made available by sprint to their customers? I contacted sprint several times regarding this and no one at spring seems to know anything about it, they've repeated the same thing every time i called that "They will pass this information to the concerned department and inform me as soon as an update is available". which is not a satisfactory answer at all. I don't know if posting a new thread here will make any difference but at least I would know that there are other users as well who are looking forward to get the latest updates for BBOS7.

I think Sprint is ALWAYS last at updates. Sometimes, I think they are waiting for 7.1 to be released if/when it does. And Sprint will be last at that also. You will get ALOT of replies saying you dont have to wait for Sprint just remove the vendor files blah blah blah....and all thats true. It would still be nice to have an update from Sprint tho. I use OSBB hybrid on my phone.....those guys put out very good hybrids....

Sprint is CDMA.
GSM Companies > CDMA Companies.

By > I mean are larger in quantity.

Does your phone work how you'd like it to? If yes then why do you need an update? Updates that have been released are usually just to fix some bugs.
