A couple of days ago it seemed Motorola was on the verge of rolling out the 2.1 Android update for all Verizon DROID smartphones. Naturally, this pleased many DROID owners as the higher Android version would mean extra features. However, yesterday, Matt (the Motorola Forums manager) had said “we jumped the gun on these details…” essentially saying the update has not been released yet, and probably not this week.
It’s a wonder why details about Android 2.1 were posted not only on Facebook but their support website, which have since been removed. Matt claims people inside Motorola posted information about the release prematurely, probably due to enthusiasm. While it may seem like a little error on Motorola’s part, it definitely annoyed DROID owners because they were on the verge of receiving a pretty nice update. Who knows exactly when the update will become available at this point.
