Motorola has updated the list of devices that will receive updated versions of Android and is revealing for the first time those slated to get Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. The Droid RAZR M, RAZR HD, and MAXX HD are all schedule to receive the Jelly Bean update before the end of the year. Other devices that will be updated to Android 4.1 include the Atrix HD, Photon Q, Electrify 2, and the Droid RAZR, RAZR MAXX, 4, and Bionic. Motorola didn't say when this second group will receive Jelly Bean. Devices not on these lists are likely to be updated only as far as Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.

Motorola also
originally promised ICS updates for some devices like the original Photon, and then later said no. Don't believe it until it actually happens folks.
ditto that......with such a wonderful track record whatever they say in regards to upgrading is worthless. Keeping a death grip on bootloaders is even more promising.
Yeah but was that after Motorola had been purchased by Google? Now that they are owned by Google I think you can expect timelier updates.
These pending updates were when the Google acquisition was still in the works but it seems like Motorola kept its autonomy and is continuing business as usual. It seems to me like Google may be trying to follow Apple's business model with its Motorola...
