Motorola Milestone In Canada will Getting Android 2.2 Next Year

According to Motorola’s official upgrade timeline, the Milestone will get Froyo in late Q4, but only for Europe and Korea. The Android 2.2 upgrade for Milestone is “under evaluation” for Canada, Latin America, and Mexico.

As expected, other Motorola phones that launched with pre-2.1 versions of Android won’t get Froyo at all, at least for the foreseeable future. Motorola’s Cliq, Cliq XT, and Backflip are waiting for Android 2.1, for which the Motorola Devour was deemed unfit.

Starting out with version 1.0, Android is already at version 2.2. Unfortunately, while the Android 2.2 public build has been available for quite some time straight from Google, hardware manufacturers and wireless carriers alike have been a bit slower releasing their updates with only some phones actually receiving it thus far.

However, if you’re a Galaxy S owner, for instance, waiting next month for the 2.2 build you have it easy. It was just made known that the Canadian version of the Motorola Droid (known internationally as the Motorola Milestone) won’t be getting updated to Android 2.2 until Q1 2011.

Of course, this may change and Motorola may push forward the Milestone Android 2.2 roll out but for now take your anger out in the comments below.
