Will the og droid get the new gingerbread update if not then why are they making us update of adobe flash n adobe air since every phone gets the update only if that phone will get update so I guess adobe thinks will get ginger bread so are we??

No the Droid one will see no more OS updates. Just my opinion and thought. Well you could do it, but it will void your warranty.

yeah, I suspect it's very unlikely at least officially anyways.  I'm sure the developers will "unofficially" find a way to get most of it running on the Droid though.

I got an update today, it says it is 2.2.1 and it had something to do with Goggle Search.

It has left a symbol up on top next to the 3G symbol, it is a circle with 2 arrows in it.

Every app for every phone is different duh!! I thought u all figured this out by now soooo if the og droid isn't gona get the new ginger bread update then why did adobe make the apps on the og droid updatable for future os! They could have made only the phone who will get it updated but flash n air was update one what THE OG DROID. That's right the OG DROID which pionts that they know sumthing we don't like perhaps we willl be seeeing update as well!! If not why make us date it.... I mean droidx n droid 2 has apps we og droids can't have cus each apps is different per phone yea adobe made updated it on the OG DROID MARKET! So I have confirmed og droid will get ginger bread after the droid t2 gets it first!

That doesn't confirm anything.  Also there isn't a different app for every phone. Adobe likely only produces one full flash version (10.1) which is accessible on all 2.2 devices in the market.  It's unlikely they'd waste the time to create different version.  Apps like blockbuster is just bloatware that verizon decided to put on the newer phones.

So because Adobe Flash was available on Droid's Market place you are confirming that Gingerbread will be available for the Droid.  That sort of reasoning isn't just flawed, it has no basis.  No, apps are not specific to each phone, most apps are generic and as long as you have the same OS and Specs required to run it, it will show up in your marketplace.

Other than your reasoning about us getting an app update, that doesn't say anything.
If you were to read around you would have found out that the adobe update was to fix a possible threat to it getting hacked.
Further more, if you thought you knew the answer to your own question, why ask it to get responses?
I still say we will not get it, our Droid 1 does not have a fast enough processor to run it, it is barely fast enough to run 2.2.
