I have edited my above posts while you were quoting it.
An example: my HTC Desire. The latest HTC gave us is v2.3 on June 2011, It took HTC 6 months to churn out the update, vanilla release was on December 2010. HTC also stops supporting the device at that time.. This update is however not recommended for most users and wipes the phone, so officially it is stuck at v2.2 (the original version only). The hardware in the phone is however capable of running Android v4.0 which is the newest. But to get that on my device, I need to be a power user, root it, loose HTC Sense, wait for the community to port the OS to this device (which is very unlikely).
How old is this phone? Born on February 16, 2010 and died June 2011. 16 months. R.I.P.
How many major updates it received: 1 (v2.1 to v2.2).
HTC Desire akin to HTC Sensation at the moment. i.e a top of the line phone.
