Android 2.1 for The Motorola Droid Is Coming Soon
Android 2.1 for The Motorola Droid Is Coming Soon
For DROID users, Who are tired of waiting for Android’s 2.1 firmware to finally hit your handset!!!! Don’t want to risk bricking your phone by using a leaked or hacked ROM dump of 2.1? Well, good news. The waiting is over! Looks like tomorrow you lucky DROID users will start to see 2.1 roll out from Verizon. So, what goodies should you be expecting to super-size your smartphone?
* Live Wallpapers
* Three new home screens
* Google News & Weather widget
* Speech-to-Text (voice recognition for every text entry field)
* Speed (expect faster transitions and performance as 2.1 more efficiently makes use of that Arm® Cortex™ A8 550 mHz processor)
Alas, there’s no update rolling out with this 2.1 DROID upgrade that would include flash 10 support. We’re keeping our eyes peeled as one thing we don’t want to see is 2.1 removing the DROID’s corporate calendar feature (which is very sorely missing from the Nexus One’s implementation of 2.1). We suspect more than a few users would be frustrated if that feature bombs. So, happy DROID owners, let us know how your 2.1 upgrade goes.
