I saw 2.2 like MLK... You know in my dream?.?.

What's real funny is I, too, had a dream about 2.2. It was short, though. My phone vibrated while I was asleep, I woke to it telling me that an update is available, and that it was 2.3. I LOL'ed when I woke up.

BIGWORM, you still have the ice cream truck with the daytons?

 

[KevinJ]

Do you not remember me?

Well, I don't remember you. To me, you are forgettable. As are many people on the internet.

It's funny that even when a forum moderator makes a few jokes about something, you can complain about it. The tangent would have stopped soon without your whining, as it usually does. And if it doesn't, someone with real power to do something about it will show up.

And now back to our regularly scheduled program...

Okay, sort of tangential, but also sort of on topic...

I've noticed the past two days that I have updates to apps, according to the market. When I look at some of them, they all mention something about being updated to 2.2 (or 2.2 sdk). Are these updates going to work on 2.1 now, or is this something for the new OS that won't work at this time. I haven't applied any of the updates.

2.2 hopes and dreams are starting to rule my life........I keep thinking about it and dreaming it will happen the moment I look at my droid.

I talked to a rep at Verizon recently about 2.2 and he had no idea what I was talking about. Like, I was informing him of this info. I asked him about the Droid Shadow that's supposed to be coming out in this year. I got the 'deer in headlights' look. :icon_eek:

So what does Verizon pay them for again? oh, SELL, SELL, SELL. I understand retail, I work in it. But a little product knowledge will take you a long way. I'm just sayin'.

I thought you were a mature and friendly member of this forum. Do you not remember me? Well whatever. Go suck a fat one.

A fat one would be nice. Something to do while waiting, and then not caring about waiting.:icon_ banana:

I've applied all of them and all working well... I suspect these are just updates to comply with the new SDK and mybe to take advantage of new functiontionality in the sdk version when available... Most devs would want their apps to work with all reasonable versions of the sdk when possible...

Verizon employees are on a very strict need to know basis. I have a friend who runs a store in suffolk Virginia, and he has not heard a single thing about 2.2 or the Droid shadow. I feel confident in saying that us in this forum know much more about Verizon releases than the vast majority of their employees.

They work fine on 2.1. The update to 2.2 is more than likely so the apps have the ability to take advantage of the Apps2SD in Froyo.

Yeah 2.2 app updates just fix issues with 2.2 or make them apps2sd compatible. So their app becomes 1.6-2.2 compatible when it used to be 1.6-2.1 so something. Not all are 1.6 compatible but you get my point. They are adding 2.2 compatibility, not making it 2.2 exclusive.
