HTC Hero to get Android 2.1 in Taiwan on April 26th

We're past mid-March and rapidly approaching the early Q2 launch estimates for the Android 2.1 update for HTC's Hero. Now Engadget Chinese has tipped us to an official HTC release date issued on Plurk (a very popular, local Twitter-like social service) in HTC's home country of Taiwan: April 26th. So we should see the update go hot globally, with the latest version of the Sense UI in tow, at about the same time. You know, if you haven't grown tired of waiting and already hacked it in.

I bet US gets it first, so I expect it here before April 26th, but that's just what I think..

Curious why you think the US would get it first.
I don't necessarily belive any of these leak dates any more, my heart had been broken too many times.

I would think Korea would get it before we do, HTC is headquatered there and GSM guys get all the goodies first.

HTC is a Taiwan based company, actually.
