I hope google cares more about updating android for the motorola droid2. Maybe I will finally get 2.3 :D

I swore off buying another Motorola product ever again after it took them an absurdly long time to roll out 2.2 for the Milestone. 2.3 is nowhere in sight. Shockingly terrible support for a flagship product.

We'll see how quickly Google can transform them. Android could really use a line of official devices that are consistently updated like iOS devices.

Motorola isn't the only manufacturer to fail their customers like that. Samsung is worse and HTC is only slightly better, but overall the outlook for any Android phone getting promptly updated over the duration of the contract period is bleak at best.

They do have the Nexus One and Nexus 2.
