Android 2.2 - Froyo

[Droid_3.0]

this is my fav half time droid drama XD

Droid drama
Worse than the babies mamma
Don't like how this thread is goin
Flame wars is all that's flowin

Wishing for some 2.2
Everyone else, not just me and you
So what else do we need to say
Posting all night long just so we can sleep all day

Finally I'm getting tired
Of this silly wack-@$$ posting style
So I made this rhyme
To let you know that it's my bedtime

lol yea I dunno. Don't drink and drive kids.

nows thats a rhyme but im gunna party till 12:00! XD

So I wouldn't count on seeing 2.2 on the Droid for alteast two months.

2.2 will be baked into custom roms well before then for those who don't want to wait, however.

Yea, I keep forgetting that....one reason I'm glad I know how to ***word that we dont mention in this thread***

So some of us may actually see it before others.

I disagree that it has to be baked in the cake this time. These are Google side enhancements that are meant to run on any Android phone that can handle the speed. I think Google can just put them out there and they will run on any basic Android device. What would Verizon change?

Really?

The ability to wifi tether for free would be one.

agreed. I have a hard time believing Verizon is going to allow free wifi tethering.

 

[OneTenderRebel]

On the droid that is. I know Palm allowed it but that was a ploy to sell their phones. The droid already sells well.

 

[rkeller62]

Key phrase there is 'for free' if they can track usage of an app built into the base rom, then they may offer the additional 'tethering' plan to make more $$$$

 

[SSHGuru]

Google can bake tethering into the cake but Verizon controls if you're charged for it or if it's activated. I'm sure that options is in there for all providers.

Don't count on it being released on our devices until July at the earliest.

Verizon stopped giving free wifi tether with the Pre now so it will be interesting to see how it plays out on the Droid.
