**Update:I’m getting a few reports as well as seeing elsewhere that 2.1 still is coming later this week and the Moto simply jumped the gun posting their little snippet of info a few days early. We shall see..

Ouch, talk about a heart killer. And right before Valentines Day no less. That wondrous Android 2.1 update news that has literally flooded the internet over the last week was all for naught as apparently a Moto forum admin got a little click happy with the mouse button as according to the companies own forum, they released the Android 2.1 DROID update pre-maturely. (read: Android 2.1 for the Motorola DROID is not coming this week). If you try to retrace your steps back to the original link detailing the good news, you’ll see that the pertaining info has been removed. Ya, that sucks.

Meh, I’ve been running custom ROM’s for the last month and a half anyhow and even have any OTA updates blocked specifically so I don’t loose my custom ROMs. But for those who don’t, I feel your pain.

Do you think this could be a response from Moto to go back to the drawing board if need be and toss in the 3D app launcher and Live Wallpapers that had so many people all hot and bothered? Or is it just your typical miscommunications? Here’s to hoping the weekend starts off on a high note for ya…
