I'm torturing myself on whether or not to go to 2.1v2 or not. I don't care about the root functionality...i doubt I'll do custom roms and such.

The wait for the upgrade is like an itch that I can't scratch. I have the 2.1v2 on my SD card already waiting to get loaded. I just can't get off the fence to do it or not...LMAO. I'm lame I know.

I keep trying myself to hold out until the end of the month but the temptation is getting the better of me.

I need you fine people to be my voice of reason. Sorry for the lameness of the thread.
 
Honestly I think you will be fine either way. It is my understanding that when the upgrade comes out you will still be able to upgrade even with the 2.1v2 running on your Eris. I would say go for it and enjoy the benefits now......who knows when the Eris is getting the official OTA?????
 
I say wait. There is nothing wrong with an Eris running 1.5. Do you need Navigation? Do you need Google Buzz? If the answer to these two is "absolutely yes", then, sure, do the upgrade, knowing that you may have issues with the audio problem with phone calls. Otherwise, you have a phone that works just fine the way it is - why install something that you know has bugs if you don't need it?
 
Theres tons of info on the features of 2.1 v2. Read up on them and see if you want them. Also read the info on the bugs and see if you can live with them.
 
Stick with 1.5 I say. Pretend there is no 2.1 update. It's a phone! It makes calls. It browses the intarwebs. Like somebody else said, 2.1 isn't THAT huge of an update, especially considering that the Sense UI is already quite an upgrade interface-wise over the base Android.

fragologist... I love your sig. :D
