Default PLEASE READ: Reguarding the 2.1 Update for the Motorola Droid

Verizon just shot out a statement to let everyone know that the over-the-air push is "being deployed to a small number of Verizon Wireless test users tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon." Should you happen to be one of those lucky test users, please grab the update.zip file off your SD card and share it with the rest of us. To do this, follow these instructions:

1. You will first see this message appear on your phone if you are one of the testers:

-Press "Install Now."

2. The update will then download in the background.

3. The following message will then appear:

-You may press the home button but DO NOT PRESS "Restart & Install!"

4. Plug you phone into your computer and mount your SD card. You should now be able to browse the contents of your SD card.

5. On the root of your SD card, you will see a file called "update.zip". Copy that file to somewhere on your computer like the desktop.

6. Finally, upload it to a file sharing site and post the link to it on this thread.

7. Now, you can now continue the update like normal. To get back to the "Restart and Install" menu as seen above, navigate to Setting> About Phone> System Updates."

Thank you in advance!
Following the upload of the update.zip file, I will post a guide on how to force the update for people who did not get the update. I expect to get a copy of the file, but no promises.
