Canadian Motorola Milestone Won’t See Froyo Until Q1 2011
When Motorola updated their upgrade timeline to reflect the latest plans for their handsets, the Canadian Milestone was left without a solid timeframe provided. While some might argue that they’d rather have no timeframe at all than one that continues to shift, the chart was again updated today to give a better sense of when the Milestone will see Froyo. And my friends, it isn’t looking like it will be any time soon.
Even though Android 2.2 has been officially released for the Motorola Droid, the Milestone (which for all intents and purposes is the same phone) looks like it won’t see Froyo until the first quarter of 2011. That is at least a solid 3-4 months of waiting at this point, and any added delays serve to only push that date back. Of course, Moto may just be erring on the side of caution and providing a much later date so as to make sure they meet the deadline. There is always room for the update to be moved up, though that is pretty unheard of in the world of Android upgrades. It’s enough to convince you to root your phone, isn’t it?
