Some of those who received the download as a test subject have reported receiving a 1.6MB patch that replaces the FRG01B build with the newer one. Considering that the DROID 2 is expected to launch with Froyo under the hood, it would be unusual for the original DROID to receive the new OS after the sequel does, especially since the original DROID runs on stock Android without the light version of MotoBLUR that is on the DROID 2.

I dont think I understand why its taking so long for the Droid when the Evo, with a custom ui, is pushing out already.

can verizon please keep their mouth shut on Android updates from now on? They keep stroking us and them leaving us hanging. 2.1 got pushed back like 5 times and now this is getting the same treatment. We were promised flash last Q4, then promised it again in the first half of 2010. it's august now. stop jerking us around. i love android, don't get me wrong, but christ, stop promising things and renigging when everyone is expecting it.

While it is frusterating, they are trying to get updates to us as fast as possible... but if delaying the upgrade means it will work better, i'm all for waiting. Imagine if Apple had come out a week before the iPhone came out and said "Look, we know all of you are extremely excited for the iPhone4, but there is an antenna issue preventing phone calls in certain situations. The phone will be released as soon as this issue is resolved." Yes, it would have been frusterating, but look what happened to them when they DIDN'T do that. PS. I'm not trying to bash Apple but this seemed to be the most logical analogy for this situation.
