Rumor: Droid 1, Droid Incredible, and Droid X to receive 2.2 update, starting on 8/6

Is that a Tuesday?
Right now the problem is they need to optimize MotoBlur to work with 2.2 and it's not going well. As with any non-Google UI, it's a pain to shoehorn. There was a leaked build, IIRC, and it was sluggish and scored very low in Quadrant (not that Q means much in the real world). In short, bad performance. The good news is they've made progress. The REALLY good news is Droid 1 owners get to point and laugh.
Just kidding. The X is awesome and if it wasn't for the locked bootloader it might be on my "eventually must have" list.
The really good news is that unless something major is broken you'll get your updates relatively soon. I mean, come on, the phone WAS just released.

Freakin sweet. I always welcome news like this even if it is just a rumor.
Apparently Evo users have already started to receive updates......

Probably lots of disappointed people still seeing "Your system is up to date"...

Isn't the Droid 2 running motoblur with 2.2 and coming out in the next week or so?

Well looks like the crystal balls were wrong again. Still no Froyo update for the Droid
Patience. The rumors the mods were originally discussing seemed to suggest 8/6-8/7.
Sorry for the double post. Just found the article link.

Just got a call back from a top tier tech, tomorrow it will begin rolling out. She said I should be happy as it is a major update that will speed up the phone quite a bit.
Is that for all Droid phones including the Incredible? Thanx

Not all phones get updated at the same time (no network can handle that). A certain number of phones get the update pushed to them, then some more do, then some more.
The first few days are generally a lower number, as they want to make sure that there isn't a catostrophic bug in the update (so they only have to replace a few hundred phones instead of a couple hundred thousand phones).
The update is coming. It is coming very soon.
