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.”

Dell offering Droid for just $119.99

Earlier this month the Motorola Droid was being offered with a two year Verizon contract for $199.99. Now the discounts have started happening and Dell is offering the phone for just $119.99.

The offer states that without an account the Droid would cost you $559.99, but if you sign up for the contract and get the instant discount through Dell then you save $440, or more realistically, $80 off the launch price with a Verizon contract.

The Verizon plan is the Nationwide Basic 900 giving you 900 Minutes talk time and 5 friends & family numbers for a cost of $59.99 a month.

Apparently the offer doesn’t just work for new customers. You can also sign-up as part of a contract extension, according to IntoMobile, opening the offer up to a lot more people.

If you want a Droid I don’t believe there is a cheaper way to get the handset on a contract right now.

Head on over to the Dell Mobility website and check out the details.
