Clearly I haven't been caffeinated yet today :eek:

I just get it from an IV now, only way to fly

Anything can be done with root. I will wait to see if you can still root before updating. If not I will wait for 2.1 with root to become available.

But...but.... I don't wanna root :(

People getting upset over a rumored update, thats not even known to be the final build?

Makes for great reading :D


I don't think people are getting "upset" per-say. I am just curious about how people feel about this. I want a "temperature of the room" if you will. Seeing as not many of my friends have droids, I like to hear what other droid owners think.
 
Well, for now all we can do is wait and see! I am sure this update with be hitting our phones any day now, and after that we can either praise or complain to our hearts content.

Apparently many VZW employees are being told be the 18th. Although, I am not a date setter by any-means, unless its by the 31st of march.
 
It actually kind of upsets me that we won't be getting the new app drawer and live wallpapers and all of that on the Droid but at the same time I can understand the reasoning behind it.

-sigh- Now 2.1 is not all that exciting :(. Just leave us with 2.0.1 I'm happy with that.

2.0.1 is missing the new gallery, new dock app, new multi touch browser, new news widget, new music player. I would not call it 2.0.1.

Who knows, they might not include ANY of that either.

And who knows, both myself AND AC pulled that info from Engadget. And they are nothing more than big Apple fanboys.

True and that is just a test build. They may be testing a few features at a time and adding a few as they get approved. Easiest way to trouble shoot.
The good thing is that we are getting multi touch browser now. :D
 
2.1 this week

Motorola Hi all-- we know you are frustrated with the lack of details regarding Android software upgrades and we sincerely apologize for not being able to share info sooner. We're happy to relay the 2.1 upgrade to DROID will start to roll out this week, and we will have more information to share on other device upgrades later ...this week as well. Thanks for your patience and continued support.

I'm afraid that the co-occurance of this update and Engadget's earlier post means that we'll get the reduced version. Sadness ensues.
 
that sucks my wife is stealling my phone this week. and their dropping this update
 
not for us root users i know this rom will be taken apart and the livewallpapers etc will be put back in
 
If this update includes the 5 screens, I will be happy.

I bet they won't, though. Especially since they couldn't get the app drawer working.
 
From what it sounds like, its going to look almost exactly the same except the MT browser. Disappointing, in my opinion.

No details have been leaked as far as towards what will be and what will not be included.
Everything you read from a tipster is not 100% accurate.
