Why won't my iphone 3g update? - 1

My friend has a 3g just like i have and her phone is updated. I called apple and they said that the 3g doesn't update any farther than version 4.1 but my friend updated to version 6.2 or something like that. When i go to my itunes account i try to update it but it says there's no update for my phone and i can't download any apps because the apps are updated to 5.2 and i my phone won't update to that version!

Because its 3G baby it's time for a upgrade

Your friend's phone may possibly be a 3GS. I think the 3GS supports iOS6. Your phone can't upgrade anymore. Sorry.

My iTunes account is 10.1.1.4 I have never updated my phone before, but now some apps say I have to before I install them. someone told me to go to "setting", "general", "Update software" - but I don't have an "update software" under settings.
