Droid 2 gingerbread.

Why is every tech website claiming that the gingerbread release is past the soak stage and available for OTA update to all starting today , and people are saying they have gotten the update already today, but I still see no download???

I even saw a page from the motorola website with a statement saying that the soak test was a success and that it was being released officially starting 11:59 last night.

They usually send updates in batches to avoid the network being overloaded with to many downloads. You may have to give it a few days.

you can always try settings>about phone>system updates. to see if you can download it yet. sadly i can not :smileysad:

Your R2D2 Droid 2 (as listedi n your profile) might also not be in the mix just yet for the Gingerbread update. There are differences between the Droid 2 and the Droid R2D2 especially in the area on what pre-installed applications are on the phone. There may be hardware difference as well.

Im 90% sure the hardware is exactly the same... its just the applications and physical appearance that differ.

But I would love to know for sure from someone that has any info straight from verizon/motorola.
