• Motorola releases Android upgrade schedule

    Sunday, August 22nd, 2010

    If you’re a peachy-keen Android/Motorola user, then you’re no doubt jonesing for some upgrade action. Well, I have some good news and some not-so-good news on the matter.

    Good news: Over the weekend, Motorola released their upgrade schedule, outlining which models will get which version of Android, and when.

    Not-so-good news: I really wish I could tell you that you’re all getting Froyo, but sometimes you just don’t get the dessert you wanted.

    So, who gets what when? Follow on through for the details.

    North America
    Droid X by Motorola (USA): Upgrade to Android 2.2 planned for late summer
    Devour (USA): Will not have a software upgrade to Android 2.1
    Backflip, Cliq and Cliq XT (USA): Upgrade to Android 2.1 (testing in process) planned for late Q3/early Q4
    All Android 2.1 and 2.2 upgrades for Canada are under evaluation only. This includes the Backflip, Dext, Milestone, Quench

    Europe
    Milestone: Initial rollout of upgrade to Android 2.2 planned for Q4
    Backflip and Dext: Will not have software upgrades to Android 2.1

    Asia-Pacific
    Milestone, Motoroi and Titanium (all Korea): Initial rollout of upgrades to Android 2.2 planned for Q4
    Milestone (Asia-Pacific): Upgrade to Android 2.2 under evaluation
    Backflip, Dext and Quench (all Asia-Pacific): Upgrades to Android 2.1 under evaluation

    Latin America and Mexico
    Milestone: Upgrade to Android 2.2 under evaluation
    Backflip and Dext: Will not have software upgrades to Android 2.1

    So, like I said, it’s not all good news, especially if you’re in Canada.

    Of course, the wonderful thing about Android is that someone, somewhere is probably porting a version of Froyo over to your phone, anyway. Doesn’t that make you feel all warm and snuggly inside?
