Finally! ...but will still wait till I actually see the upgrade to believe it. There has been so much run around with this, it's still hard to believe even this article. Still happy though.

Looking forward to see how the Droid performs post-update.

At noon on 3/18, 1,000 users will receive notification of the update. At 11:59 PM on 3/18, 9,000 more users will receive the update notification. After the first 10,000 users receive the update on 3/18, there will be a 24-hour period when no additional upgrades will be delivered. On Day 3 (3/20), 200,000 users will receive the update notification at 11:59 PM. This schedule will continue each day thereafter until the update has been delivered to all users. Im rooted so I hope i get it...

if you are rooted why would you want it? you will loose root access atleast for a few days. and as long as you havnt disable OTA updates manually or flashed a custom rom(OTA usuallly disabled) you should get it no problem.

well I like rooted, but my live wallpapers arent interactive like the legit live wallpapers on the Nexus. (Just a small picky example) So i figured maybe if I got the legit 2.1 rather than "Droid Mod" that maybe it would run smoother....If you know about rooting let me know if you thinkk itd be better to have a rooted "Mock 2.1" or Legit 2.1

I would rather have a "mock" custom rom, but i like to play with expieremental software, and dont mind a few bugs to have cool new features before anyone else. and also they already have "Mock roms" that have this upadte on it since it leaked online a couple weeks ago.

Does "Mock 2.1" fix the delayed email bug. I also have NO EMAILS coming in at tines and i have to solve this problem by restarting my phone. Some emails which i have already read, come back as unread- does this ROM u have, or rooting it period, solve some of these issues?

I notcied yesterday late evening that two yahoo bookmarks showed themselves on my main home screen with my DROID....has this happened to anyone else? Maybe a sign on the upgrade getting ready since it is going to include yahoo email access now?

http://www.androidcentral.com/droid-ota-update-now-be-determined http://www.boygeniusreport.com/2010/03/18/motorola-droid-update-delayed/ I guess the update got cancelled? If this is true I'm sick of being teased w/ this update crap. They need to learn to stick to their word. I understand they're trying to make sure it all works before they release it, but I'd wish they'd stop saying ok its coming, no wait its not ready, ok its coming, no wait its not. Stupid. This whole things makes me want to get an N1.

Indeed it has. I am at work right now and our Infomanager page says the update has been postponed. Bummer.

Look at the brightside...it was delayed because a last minute bug was found...would you rather have the buggy 2.1 so you could whine and cry that something was wrong with your phone, or wait until they get it right?

Uh, I said I understand it's cuz there is a bug, but I wish they'd really finalize before they make these announcements its coming. Its the 2nd time now. Don't be an idiot.
