Android 2.1 leaks for Motorola Droid
As many Droid owners know, Motorola promised the Android 2.1 update was coming “this week” which later turned into coming soon. No further updates have been provided since then, but someone leaked a near final firmware (which is expected to be used for the upcoming OTA update).
Kellex from Droid Life was brave enough to flash the leaked ROM on his Droid and found the performance to be improved.

Verizon: Use your Motorola Droid or HTC Imagio as a FiOS TV remote
Verizon posted a note on its forums that says FiOS TV customers can use their Verizon Wireless Android powered Motorola DROID or the Windows Mobile powered HTC Imagio as a remote to control their FiOS set-top box. The software allows you to control channels, pause/rewind/face forward, set parental controls, record TV shows, and even transfer photos from your phone to your television. If a phone call comes through, your TV will be automatically muted.

Motorola tells DROID owners to chill, Android 2.1 will be here soon
After Motorola apparently was premature in telling DROID owners to expect Android 2.1 to be sent to their machine this week, owners of Motorola’s flagship device were nursing broken hearts. Motorola removed all posts in its forum and web site having to do with the upgrade, including a list of what changes the upgrade was to bring to the DROID.
In response to an email from Phonescoop, Motorola said on Thursday, “The Droid over-the-air software upgrade is expected to rollout soon. It will automatically be pushed to phones when ready and Verizon Wireless customers will only have to accept the free download for continued use and enjoyment of this feature packed device.”
