Verizon commits to ‘newer’ Android for Droid Eris with Google Maps Navigation in Q1 2010

Verizon has just announced that it’ll be bringing the Droid Eris to a “newer” build of Android with integrated Google Maps Navigation for release in the first quarter of 2010. Since Google’s nav app works on 1.6 now, that really doesn’t give us much of a clue which version the Droid Eris can expect to see — but seeing how we have leaked Hero firmwares running on 2.1 at this point, that’d seem like a probable target.
