The only HTC Droid is the HTC Incredible. The Eris is not branded "Droid". If you are talking about the Eris (6200) then nothing has been announced.

But not by itself. I was asking for clarification when he said HTC Droid. The "Eris" is not branded Droid on it's own.

Yes it is.

It is the Droid Eris (most reps called it the HTC Droid or just "Eris" but the offical name is the Droid Eris)

The Incredible is the Droid Incredible, but all the packaging says HTC Incredible, with no Droid branding (The Eris box is Droid Branded)

Well, HTC says it did not get the Droid branding as did the Director for this area with Verizon.

Regardless, he asked a question about the "HTC Droid". No way to know what he meant without asking.

I get you, texas, to an extent, though here in the west area it's called the HTC Droid Eris. Saying "HTC Droid" is like saying "Kellogs Cereal," it doesn't specify any particular "model."

Correct! And they're doing it in phases, as usual. 10,000 units will have the updates pushed to it each evening.

Hey Tex arent you an ATT guy anyway? And yep I mean the HTC Droid Eris, do you have this phone? I have two them and on the box that they came in, in BIG letters it say DROID across the middle of the box and in little letters its say Eris across the top. And until the Incredible came out this was the only HTC phone with Verizon that was called the Droid. By the way Verizon has said the update to start today. http://www.mobilecrunch.com/2010/05/10/androi d-2-1-coming-to-the-droid-eris-tomorrow/ I was just wanting to know if anyone had got there yet.

Sold my stores a year ago last month. Owned Verizon Wireless stores for some time now.

Looks like you got the information needed. Good luck. I am excited to see how it will work on the Eris.

Tex I have been running the leaked 2.1 update for some time now and it's pretty cool but since it was the leaked and not the final one it does have a few bugs but it was still worth the upgrade, I am hopping the Verizon version will fix all of that.
