verizon employees told droid update "coming soon"

i was hoping to not stir up the rumor mill again, but this seems actually worth reporting on.  android central received a release that went out to verizon wireless employees today telling them to prepare for the android 2.1 update…

to back this up, i talked with another motorola rep this morning who confirmed that the ota update will come from verizon and not motorola as many have suggested.  does this really give us any sort of timeline?  obviously not but releasing the update to verizon is the final step before we all receive it.

a PR contact of ours at verizon also chimed in with this…

Coming soon is OK. The DROID over-the-air software upgrade is expected to roll out soon.

stay tuned!
