My point in the earlier post was that it appears that the update is rolling out over wifi connections only. Since I don't typically enable wifi, I may not see the update until I do. I suppose VZW doesn't want a large file download on every handset tying up its 3g connection...
for those trying to figure out if it's geography based, looks like people on that other forum have started a collaborative google map to mark where the updates are happening... DROID 1st OTA Update - Google Maps
if this pic is real... i REALLY hope verizon didn't brand our locks screen like that! i hope it's just the users background.
Um, my lock screen right now before the update says "Verizon Wireless". That same place says "Extended Network" when I'm in a roaming area. It's not a branding, it just tells you what network you are currently on.

Looks like all west coast people on that forum at least.
I really wish you guys hadn't posted this was coming out...I would have been so happy todayw/the cool Google Maps updates and Google Goggles. Now I have to deal with update fever!!
I'm on the left coast (SoCal) and no update notification so far.

My lock screen has never said anything but the time of day. I have never had Verizon wireless on the screen. I do have 2 co-workers that do though.

Good lookin' out...not that it matters for me as I'm "sans Droid". Still waiting to hear about reception as to decide whether to go back to VZ or pick up the Milestone.
i know it's stupid but i really wish the new lock screen was still centered. the screenshot in this thread really upsets my sense of...something. not symmetry because at least they offset the clock with the vzw text. but i'd still prefer it centered.

LOL..."yeah, ever since I got the updates, my battery isn't lasting as long..."
Hey I appreciate the post I am pretty grateful that I may not have to wait till the 11th. By the way I have enough faith in mankind to believe it did happen without the flicks. I find it hard to believe that someone would post something like that for no reason. I think it is also pretty disturbing that here you are taking the time trying to help and Inform fellow forum members and the lack of class or gratitude you received from some members. This forum is feeling less and less of a united journey and more like a drag sometimes. Not blaming the forum administrators or the forum itself just some of the members. Think about the comments you make before you post no need to be insulting or condescending.

I agree. Some of you doubters are really annoying. We're all trying to share our excitement about an update here, so let's stay positive.
Still no update for me in NY. I'll post back when I receive it.

Some people need to shave that extra 2/10's, when opening their phone to look at 1 of the 6000+ pictures stored on their phone...sorry Brucey, nothin' but "tough love".

The fishy part (still) is no one is replying back with their build information that you can easily get by going to settings, about this phone, and version number, etc.
With the image provided it's obvious that the update is starting to be rolled out, but not posting the internal version number and everything is the reason for distrust.
That being said I believe those who said they have it, mostly because I don't care if they do or don't have it.
Should I delete any of that for my own privacy? I dont know what any of that means really.
i don't know how to decipher it - but if it matters, what the original poster put down for that string was exactly what i have. so i'm going to say it's *just* the build number if i had to guess, not personally identifiable.

Wow! I actually see a pin for Yuba City, CA on that map lol. Glad to know I'm not alone out here

It's all phone and OS specific information. No need to worry about it. THanks for the evidence though, can't wait to get home and enable wifi so I can DL this also..

I've been checking my phone every 30 seconds since I first saw this post...most of us "doubters" were probably being sarcastic or joking around. Don't take everything on the tubes so seriously, Al Gore doesn't.
The Motorola Droid - the first ever Verizon Android Phone - exploded onto the mobile market with an incredibly successful ad campaign that brough Android to the masses. With a huge and vibrant touchscreen, solid metal body, full QWERTY keyboard, 5M... Read More
