Android Froyo Update for Motorola Milestone Still Pending

I guess the same effort is being put by other phone manufacturers i.e HTC etc in rolling out the update for their phones. If it's just motorola who's taking much longer then i guess there is some serious problem with the company's management. Being in india where the phone is much expensive (Rs 27500, equivalent to $600) it feels like motorola is making fools out of us, minting money and providing nothing in return! I'm pretty eagerly waiting for the update 2.2 on android and if motorola defers the plans like this then it surely will feel the heat from the customers rage. And in turn nobody will buy/recommend motorola phones next time.

This is it! I was thinking they were on the verge of finishing the update! I am never going to buy a phone again from a company which treats its non US customers like idiots. I am an indian too and i have paid atleast 100$ more than other people around the world for my phone. LAST MOTOROLA PHONE EVER! A company like this deserves to die. They just got lucky.

This is sad. Especially since the phone is capable of running 2.2. This means that they don't "want" to update it vs. "can't", making the decision to put resources on newer phones instead. If they are going to just outright abandoned the folks who bought their phones making it so they didn't go out of business, then I would like to see them do the right thing here to compensate for this. Perhaps offering a huge discount on Droid 2 phones if we hand them back our Droid 1 phone. IPhones that all use the same OS is starting to sound more and more interesting.

They say its not a walk in the park. This means they r nt capable to be in the market and compete wirh HTC and other Android phones. I suggest motorola should go back to making their own OS they never sold, google should not have approvd motorola to use their OS. Yes we all know OS updates are not easy but is it not why they hav engineers to solve problems and improve. All milestone owners r vry upset including myslf as 2.2 froyo is what kept me goin.

The phone works fine with only minor bugs on 2.1, so can people please stop moaning and enjoy the device.
so what if your phone does not have 2.2 yet, get over it, this is not a competition, most people buy phones to use them not to show off that they get the latest updates first, so long as my phone works I don't have an issue with Motorola taking longer to provide upgraded software.
It is nice to have the latest features, but it is not a necessity. the reactions so far on here seem very childish and petty.
People saying things such as "they should be compensated" or "google should not have approved them" are very unrealistic , the deivce is not faulty and works very well with the google OS , so I see no need for such comments.
I hope Motorola provide the 2.2 update as it does have some very good features, but if they decide to stay with 2.1 then that is fine by me as I understand the industry and know that companies can only support a device for so long (although I am confident the device will receive at least the next 3 or 4 updates), Motorola have been out of the top flight for a while and I would assume their R&D department are focusing on the new models that are due to be released and these are now the companies priority.

May lead to reduced sales! Just reading moto's forums
