The data is being updated but the phones aren't, from all I can tell. Does anyone know of a single retail phone that has been updated from 1.x to 2.x? (Not unofficial Roms)
The blogs, twitter, etc are full of suggestions, leaked internal memos, suggesting that 2.1 upgrades are just around the corner since February for Hero, Moment, Cliq etc. The statements from the carriers only add to the vagueness - saying maybe April, no maybe June, no maybe first week of May. Even devices like the G1 that will probably *never* get the 2x update, I don't know if the carriers have firmly said no, which makes anything they say less credible. But I really don't know enough about this topic to know what the bottleneck is. Is it just a really hard problem? Is it just not a priority for the carriers, so they only have one high school kid working on it part time? Is it completely impossible/impractical but they don't want to admit it yet? This is the chance for Android to stand out, if people don;t have to wait for new hardware to get new features. But so far, its not happening. Palm WebOS hasn't done as well as Android, but they apparently have/had a more streamlined update process.
