Solaris Patch Access

I see you can no longer download patches from sunsolve for Solaris 10, 9 and 8 without a support contract. I have a V240 that is 4 months old, do new machines normally come with some sort of contract? Thats kind of lame that I can't patch a $12,000 server I just got recently.

Still waiting on a call back from the people I got my server from. But if anyone has any info that'd be great!
