Surely that can't be true, it would kill the market for secondhand phones stone dead, mean that you'd be stuck with the same handset for a year, and when you upgraded that otherwise fully working phone would be rendered totally and completely useless except as spare parts.
That rumour cannot be true, perhaps the odd sim card or certain payg maybe, but not across the board.
Any source or link to info on that at all?
