We’ve heard about 2.1 rolling out to some Motorola users, and now the Backflip is up for slating. Some users are reporting that they have received emails from Motorola asking if they would be a willing participant in a test run for Android 2.1 on their Backflip. The number of desired testers being rolled around is 1,000. It’s always nice to see these updates take place in a test-first capacity, as it shows the manufacturer really wants to ensure their upgrade will function properly in real life situations. In lieu of the most recent Android statistics, it will also be good to see the Backflip get into the mainstream of the Android platform.
So stay tuned, Backflip users! Your upgrade to Eclair is more than likely coming soon! Be sure to read the text of the emails being sent out after the break, and don’t forget to let yus know what you think in the comments!
“Motorola and AT&T are happy to announce a trial release of the 2.1 (Éclair) software upgrade for Backflip, before it is officially released to all customers. We are recruiting 1,000 Backflip owners to test and provide feedback on the upgrade process and software experience.
If you’re a Backflip owner and you’re interested in testing the 2.1 software, please fill out this short registration form.
This registration period will be open until we receive our limit of qualified applicants. Note that you must be a member of the Motorola Owners’ Forums to register. If you want to take part, just join this community now and then fill in the 2.1 user trial registration form. Please note that registering will not guarantee you’ll be among those testing the 2.1 software. Testers will be chosen on a first-come; first-served basis, and on your registration responses.
Additionally, not every owner invited to take part will end up receiving the software, as the download period will be limited to a specific period of time.”
