Microsoft Scraps 'Where's My Phone Update?' Site 162

An anonymous reader writes "Microsoft disappointed some Windows Phone users on Friday by saying it would stop providing specifics about who will get software updates and when, and announcing vaguely that a new update is 'available to all carriers that request it.' The update fixes a few issues, including one that caused the on-screen keyboard to disappear and another that caused problems with synching Gmail. Eric Hautala, general manager of customer experience engineering for Windows Phone, said Microsoft will no longer say when people will get updates based on their country, phone model and carrier."

From personal experience I can tell you that setting in my HHR all of a sudden my door locks started opening and closing by themselves.Someone with there fob had operated my car and I had to get the dealership to come out and get the car to unlock it because the car would not release the stick to engage the car.Cars are simply NOT secure.
