The Gadget Gurus

Motorola has sunk the hopes and dreams of many Droid users by releasing a statement in their support forums saying all the 2.1 information they released was “premature”, including the update coming next week. Of course you can still get 2.1 the unofficial way

Engadget has posted what is expected to be packed in the Motorola Droid 2.1 update. Here are the dirty deets:

• Looks like it’ll be based off the Android2.1-update1 build that Google put out last week on the Nexus One.
• And that means expect multitouch in the browser, to go along with the pinch-to-zoom that was enabled on the Droid for Google Maps just last week.
• Google Googles is baked into the ROM by default (also standard in Android 2.1-U1).
• The Droid’s home screen remains as is — no new rotating app thingy instead of the drawer, and no live wallpapers.
• The news and weather widget from the Nexus One will be included.
