Not Good for Eris owners - 2.1 coming to the hero in early spring

[Jlopcpa]

Just saw this article at Brighthand....

HTC Hero Getting Android OS 2.1 in Early Spring

I would assume that may mean the Eris is also going to have to wait until Spring time as well?

That goes with what I heard as well from a friend @VZW

Pretty much what has been stated from the beginning. Verizon said it would be by end of the first quarter 2010. That would be March 31st.

"Early Spring" = March = Still within the "First Quarter of 2010" initially announced. This changes nothing and is not bad news. In fact, it's good news to hear that it's still in line to be coming as originally announced.

Still makes me shed a small tear.... I was really pumped for a January release

I was too, so I guess it depends on what your expectation were I guess.

Damn forum gossip

 

[smacky]

Yeah, well, as much as it hurts to know it's not coming out soon, at least we're at peace now and not losing sleep expecting an update at any moment.

Perhaps it will come on my birthday, March 28th. Then I can feel like it's a special, wonderful gift from them.

Paaaarrrteeeeee!

Kinda makes you wonder what they're doing this instant regarding the Eris 2.1. Are they working on it, still planning how it's going to be done, or simply procrastinating?

They're plotting against us?

That or they still have not figured out the you-tube problem

They are probably asleep.

February 12?

February 12?

That was the date a few of us were guesstimating.

You know that guy? That guy in the office who gets stuff done, but doesn't really rush cause he knows as soon as he finishes one project, they'll just assign him a new one. Eris 2.1 is sitting on his desk.... Doh'

 

[smacky]

I just wish something would come out directly addressing the Eris and 2.1. Even if it is still just speculation. It'd be nice to know how it's all moving along. Or isn't.

[alprazolam]

I get sick and damn tired of hoping off of rumors. I know better than to get my hopes up over the speculation shit. Speculation is meant to be fun but now I'm really tasting turn-by-turn directions, spoken text messages, etc.

I just have to get myself back into patience mode and enjoy what I have. I'm trying to get back into topics that teach me about my current configuration.

Edit: You know what? I just looked at the source and it's from that same Irish Carrier. I wonder if they are the same folks that passed on the rumor about today being a big day for Verizon managers. The upside is that you could wake up any day and find that you have an upgrade waiting. Maybe it'll be on a day when I'm sleepy as hell and just starting off shitty and then bam! Upgrade to cheer my day up.

 

[pavirotten]

I'm counting the days til 2.1 is released (and the number of threads with rumors of it being released tomorrow).

 

[ckochinsky125]

you can speak text messages now on the eris using handcent

 

[pkopalek]

That was the date a few of us were guesstimating.

I was joking!

 

[OfTheDamned]

Sorry, with no smiliey I missed that.

pkopalek, maybe you should have used the brand new SarcMark!
