News on the release of 2.1

[Shadez]

I dont think they will make another announcement, it will just happen.. I think they know by now people are tired of their 'anouncements'.

Agreed.

It sucks too, I've spent 24/7 refreshing search results by "latest" even though they are automatically fed. *sigh* If work checks my browser history I'm going to have a hard time talking my way out of this one..:greendroid:

 

[Tegamal]

I might consider 2.1 if it'll let my camcorder work without locking up my phone.

Plus, I'd like to get Flash someday.

How can anyone still be taking about this? 2.1 = unicorn.
Unicorn; something that is talked about but never seen.

So sad but so true!

"They" still haven't made any announcement. The 'announcement' was a leaked internal document not meant for the public. If people are tired of leaked info, then stay away from tech forums/blogs/news sites. The vast majority of Droid users have no clue that there is even an update in the works, only the tech savy few know or care. Verizon has not made any official announcement regarding 2.1's rollout date at all.

Exactly. The only time I will actually believe it is coming out is when I see it officially on Verizon's website.

Everything else is just pure speculation.

Is it Google or Verizon causing the delay?

According to this short article from Handheld Items it is Google holding up the release.

Verizon Android 2.1 Update for the Motorola Droid Going Out! FINALLY! (**Update** RUMOR)

 

[Isaiah]

old news. And I don't particularly believe anything from that site.

 

[Jizzylax]

Again, a rumor. No fact.

 

[kevinkotwicki]

flash

will the update have adobe flash?

 

[khelek]

no.

Can someone please post a FAQ, sticky it, that says "no, there is no time announced for 2.1. And if there were, we wouldn't believe it anyway. I don't care how reliable your cousin's ex-roommate's divorce lawyer's verizon rep is".

and "no, when 2.1 comes, there will not be Adobe flash."

 

[Ice_Cold]

Adobe flash will come out some time late this year.

 

[hookbill]

no.

It wouldn't matter if we did it in a 32 font, people will still ask.

Just like people ask why do we let this thread go on? Because if we didn't we'd have 50 2.1 threads. Right now we have 2 that are really active and probably 50 that have been forgotten about.

Droid2 will come out before 2.1..... heard it here first!
