1. Stop discussing this. This topic has been beaten to death numerous times already.
2. 2.1 will come when Motorola and Verizon think it's ready for us. Don't believe Wikipedia or your rumor sites that say it'll be released OTA in January. "Quarter 1 2010" means shut up and wait until March 31, then start complaining again.
3. Root your phone if you want 2.1 so badly. It's a very simple task if you're not a total retard. You're only going to disappoint yourselves, doing this over and over.
Eeeeeeeeeexactly.I work at Verizon and can tell you first hand. I know we are getting it. BUT there is no idea when it will be rolling out
I dont think its going to be 2.1..
perhaps 2.1.1 or 2.1.2 or 2.2... 2.1 as released on the Nexus is too "old" now. Why introduce such old ****ty code to the DROID? If I was writing software id fix the bugs found in 2.1 and then release that.
Lets see how smart google and moto are.
Uh..we haven't seen a 2.1 update yet. There is no reason to believe we won't see that in our update whenever it comes.
Be patient. I had to wait over a year for an update to my 6800/Mogul to even make it usable back in the day. Anyways it could be worse, we could be stuck with 1.6 like HTC users.
The fact that this phone has gotten updated at all since launch is pretty remarkable. I guess the fact that I come from HTC Windows Mobile smartphones has given me a different perspective. I sold my Touch Pro because 10 months later it was still horribly broken software wise. HTC got it out but Sprint never released a fix (in my time with it, dunno if they did yet).
Google isn't the reason 2.1 isn't out yet for the Droid is it? I'm pretty sure its up to the carrier and phone manufacturer to get it released for the phone.
Be thankful that the Droid works so well that the update isn't really necessary today. 2.1 is coming soon enough and I'm sure we'll get all the good features in time. You guys are worse than the blackberry people crying for 5.0 to come out.
It is the fact that this phone seems to be pushed to the side by google as so as they drop the Nexus. Also your HTC Pro running on Winmo is your own problem...what were you thinking? Winmo...Seriously?
