Android phone OS releases

moin moin, I thought someone said the Cliq is Android 1.6 or something, but can't find the reference. Alan mentioned that we have to wait for updates. Do OS upgrades depend on the handset manufacturers or the wireless carrier or both? If so, are there any comparisons or ways to track when update
