I own a Droid and a Droid X. Already upgraded the Droid to 2.2. I bought the Droid X when it released because I expected the 2.2 upgrade would be coming soon. My frustration is the secrecy of Verizon in release dates. Am I alone in wondering why Verizon would sell the Droid 2 that release a month later than the DX with 2.2 and yet doesn't have the courtesy to even keep us informed of release target dates for our phones. If there are issues, then tell us.

 

They run ads about  the phone doing things that it is not capable of at this time. It really sucks.

 

I have purchased Direct TV's Sunday ticket to go and I'm not even sure it's going to run without flash player on my DX. Really thing Verizon needs to man up and give us information rather than reading rumors on boards about the release.

 

My two cents.

Good save...:smileyhappy:)

I would love to see the update hit, but after reading about all the grief it has caused the D Incredible folks, I'd rather them wait, as maddening as that may be, and make sure that updates don't make things worse.

I just read the postings in the Incredible forum on Android 2.2. I'd rather wait another month for the upgrade then have those problems.

Seriously?  So because you jumped the Gun and bought the Direct TV Sunday Ticket, VZW should rush out a program which it wouldn't for nearly 1million other owners?

 

There has been no secret that 2.2 has been delayed, a simple google search shows that there were issues with Adobe licensing for Flash 10.2.  This is what has been delaying the Droid X getting 2.2.

that sunday ticket to-go is meant for laptops on a wifi connection at like hotels or to watch on a computer when away from home... you run that on your droid x and say hello to a high data charges bill.. u will pass the softcap of 5gb monthly in a heartbeat

You can do it on wifi if needs be.  Also you won't incur excess data charges on your bill for using data on your phone, VZW is currently the only service that means unlimited when they say "unlimited."   Believe me, otherwise I'd have been hit long ago as I averaged between 15gb-30gb use each month on my phone for over 1 year.

 

There is talk that VZW is going to switch to a tiered data plan, but from what I've read it's simply going to open lesser priced plans for low-data users.

 

Keep in mind if you do this though, you will be faced with horrible lag while watching it.
