Two pages you can check out:

http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/ (check under the Subscription Benefits
section)

http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/compare/server/ (the line item for
"Product updates" . . . the same line item exists for the client solutions
as well)

In addition, if you log into RHN with an already subscribed machine, you
will see you have access to all three releases (2.1, 3 and 4.)
