    Good luck with that QCH, from what I've read anything with the MOTOBLUR interface only gets put on phones Motorola considers "lower end" or bargain phones. I wouldn't expect much in the way of being kept on the cutting edge. Especially since they have to put in quite a bit of dev time to update custom UIs like that for newer Android releases.

    It has been confirmed that the Cliq will be getting 2.1, but Motorola has not said when.

    I look forward to the upgrade, but I'm honestly more hopeful about some phone performance issues.

    It would be really nice to NOT have to reboot the phone to reacquire the 3G signal after leaving the Wireless Network Extender zone in my apartment.

    @Gnome Queen: Have you played with the Dolphin browser at all? It has the multi-touch capability, although there are some other quirks and trade-offs.

    Hello Todd! No, I haven't tried the Dolphin browser. I'll have to look into it. Thanks for the tip! :D

    Dolphin is great. I installed it and haven't used the built in browser since.

    Hopefully the multi-touch updates also fix the scrolling issue. You know, you're scrolling and all of a sudden the app scrolls down full speed? Yeah, that one...
