Motorola unveils 2.1 upgrade roadmap for most of its Androids

21 June, 2010

The talk of the Android world is mostly Froyo updates but there are still plenty of devices that haven't even made it to Eclair. Well, there's hope for some of Motorola's own as the company just revealed its upgrade plans for a number for smartphones.

The Motorola CLIQ (or DEXT if you will) and CLIQ XT (a.k.a. QUENCH) will be the first to get a taste of Android 2.1. Their updates from 1.5 (Cupcake) to Eclair should come before the end of Q2, which means somewhere in the following 9 days.

The Motorola BACKFLIP owners should be next to celebrate as their update will be pushed in the following quarter. The source only mentions the AT&T BACKFLIP units, but we guess once the update is ready, releasing it to the Euro handsets can't take too long.

Now then, what's the Android 2.2 update schedule?
