Froyo ETA Set

**Phil Nickinson** · 07-22-2010, 07:36 AM

Take this how you will, but Leo Laporte on This Week in Google (they need a good Android person on that show, BTW), said we he got his Droid X, they told him Froyo on Aug. 15.

You know how I am about these sort of rumors, but there you go.

...believe it when i see it

MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!

What a gift that would be

Btw Leo is the man. I miss Screensavers back in the hey days of TechTV

anyone else miss that channel?

And the early days of G4, Electric Playground with Tommy Talarico and Victor Lucas. Those two guys were hilarious. If you want some good whole-hearted entertainment look-up clips from that show on youtube. If you were or still are an old school gamer you certainly will not be disappointed

**Cory Streater** · 07-22-2010, 07:57 AM

That seems like a totally plausible date. Thanks, Phil.

I used to love Screen Savers! That show rocked!

That would be cool. Here's hoping.

**vicw926a4** · 07-22-2010, 08:45 AM

Leo is great, but keep in mind he predicted, with fair confidence, that the iPhone would be released on Verizon in June.

**Bitterjay** · 07-28-2010, 08:05 PM

looks like the X is getting Froyo, like, today?

Anyone check their phones? mine hasn't gotten it yet.

**doctorlove316** · 07-28-2010, 08:07 PM

If anyone around here was actually getting it, trust me, it would be posted, and posted, and posted, and posted...

**Bitterjay** · 07-28-2010, 08:09 PM

Ehh. well we do like rumors, don't we? Either way, let the praying begin, yeah?

I ain't gonna lie, I'm guilty of checking a few times since this rumor was floating around last night.

**moosc** · 07-28-2010, 08:12 PM

theres seems to be speculation that is photochopped. and if AC felt it worthy to post they would will. i dont seem to believe it since the quadrant scores are really low.

**Bitterjay** · 07-28-2010, 08:14 PM

Yeah, true. I got too excited and in the heat of the moment moved over to the forums.. oh well. I'm still astounded at my X's performance, sans froyo.

**doctorlove316** · 07-28-2010, 08:18 PM

I don't believe any of the screenshots either but there are some pretty reliable people in the Android community saying that the rumor is indeed true that some have already gotten it (a select few).

Well it's ok, you've just driven the hype machine a little bit more!

Especially with a thread title that leads on so much.

It could've been more misleading...it could have been FROYO NOW!!!!!!!!!!

**Bitterjay** · 07-28-2010, 08:28 PM

Making me feel guilty, @avlfive!

But it's okay, at least AC isn't hyping it as much as it's users are.

**kajii** · 07-28-2010, 08:30 PM

I've been checking every hour on the hour... I hate rumors!

Lies! You wouldn't check if you didn't love the rumor mill!

**Fabian43** · 08-01-2010, 02:01 PM

I just walked out of verizon retail store and the rep told me the froyo release date for the X is August 15. He said they got an email with the release date. He also said he wouldn't be surprised if it got pushed back as it is very common

**doctorlove316** · 08-01-2010, 02:03 PM

That seems to fit in with the "Late Summer" release they are planning for. If this is true that he got an email about it, I'm sure that email will be leaked by another employee somewhere.

**DaRkL3AD3R** · 08-01-2010, 02:30 PM

Well its not the first time we've heard this rumor, and since that is my birthday I am gonna hope it is released then lol. That would make for one hell of a 23rd birthday imo!
