I just wasn't sure. I got my phone less than a week ago and I've seen a few mentions of an update that was received in September so I was just curious.
Remember that system updates pushed by the carrier don't necessarily mean an update to a higher Android version. With Verizon, it's often just various bugfixes, security patches, or tweaks to the preinstalled bloatware.
There was a time when I thought that US carriers were obstructive of updates, whereas I now realise that they have to test them first before releasing them, which is of course commendable. I therefore beg their pardon.
