Motorola BACKFLIP and CLIQ get US-only Android 2.1 update

Motorola Touch UI Android

Before you go crazy, let's be clear the Android 2.1 Eclair update is meant only for the US BACKFLIP and CLIQ. Both ROMs are already available via Motorola's support sections and all US users can upgrade right now.

In case you have forgotten, Motorola announced their update schedule a few months back. It's been clear ever since that the Eclair updates will land only on the State-side BACKFLIP and CLIQ (DEXT in Europe).

Whatever the real reasons for this, we are sure Motorola did leave lots of users disappointed. Surely they will think twice before buying another Moto smartphone.

Back on the subject though, US BACKFLIP users please, go this way, while the US CLIQ user are welcome here.

I'm tired of this. Everything for the USA. Well, i want to say something. They are NOT the only country in the world! Wake up people. I'm from Argentina, and it's really dissapointing for me. Now, i'm not sure to buy this phone. Thanks motorola!

People have purchased backflip after knowing that it will be updated to 2.1, now if they come to know that it will not be updated, a lot of problems will arise, I am a motorola promoter, and I have sold many handsets, now daily customers are comin...
