Correct me if I'm wrong, but OTA updates don't have anything to do with the operators.. The phone periodically checks with Google's servers for updates.
OTA = Over The Air
Each operator may have certain functions restricted and customisation in place. They only update their own customers with custom updates.
For instance, the Android Hero is available in the UK in three ways -
Unlocked, 3UK or Orange. The operators will only push an upgrade to their
own customers if they feel it necessary.
More often than not, a manual upgrade will need to be done by users going to the HTC website and downloading the appropriate upgrade.
Even this can only be done after the serial number of the phone has been entered as HTC check that the serial number matches those matching the operator that HTC sold the phone to.
