Android 2.2 - Froyo

[boostdscoob]

just call verizon and complain about the update not being out yet.
a million people complain, their bound to get crackin on it.

We will be under the same rules as the Palm Pixi and PRE. Just an assumption

Why is it so many people have such a negative view of what this update will bring? And what "good stuff" was left out of 2.1. Multiple home screens? What else?

Again, don't look back at 2.1 as any kind of example of how 2.2 will be released. So much negativity. Look at it in the same way that 2.0.1 was released. And even if we did have to wait until July, which I highly doubt, we would still have received 3 updates for the OS in the span of 9 months. How often does any other device get updated? Think iPhone gets 3 updates in 9 months time? Microsoft doesn't update their very flawed OS's but once a year, tops (I'm talking about a new version).

This is going to be a great update I wish people would stop putting it down before it gets a chance to get here.

Bravo Hook!

I agree 100% everyone is an expert on someone else's policy and knows what they are doing/thinking. Lots of paranoid rumor mongering going on here.

As far as tethering is concerned what I can tell you from experience... when I had phones that Verizon OFFICIALLY supported tethering on (Samsung Saga & Two Motorola Q's) the tethering charge was an additional $15.00 a month. The rates may have gone up as I cancelled the tether option on my contract when I got the Droid in December but that is the way Verizon handled tethering at that time.

I wasn't being negative.....the tethering on the Palm is free of charge from VZW

No, you weren't. I picked on you because of something someone else quoted in one of your post, you just were quoting them and responding. Apologies.

No worries Hook! Can't wait for 2.2 myself. That means the devs can get to work on some pure liquified awesome roms!!!

It appears Adobe states their 10.1 will be released by June 17th. I guess all Android will have it by then.

Isn't 10.1 already included with the folks who got the 2.2 update? I also thought that it was available to download in the market as long as you're already running 2.2. What exactly will be different about the version they release on June 17th? Is the current version still considered beta?

"we do expect"
That's all...

also, it seems that they're still waiting on the source code...

The OTA is going to be a wait lets just hope that people remain patient and not freak out.

It will probably be the final version, the one out now is either a beta or an RC.

The current flash out now is considered a beta version who knows if on June 17th is when the app officially exits the beta category or not. Wait and see I guess

After the 2.1 debacle, I'm not even going to think about 2.2 speculation.
I'll just be satisfied to be pleasantly surprised when it drops.

Yeah, right. You'll be around here watching just like everyone else.

And again I say don't think of the 2.1 rollout as being typical. We don't know that, we've had two rollouts one went smooth the other not so smooth.
