Motorola Cliq could get Android 2.1 in March

Wednesday, February 10, 2010 at 11:51AM

A rumor has been flying around the net as to when the Android 2.1 update will come to Motorola Cliq owners. Well, according to BGR’s website they have said that the update could come in March. Their source was not cited though so I guess we will just have to take their word for it. The CEO of Motorola did announce at CES that the Motorola Cliq & Droid is going to be updated to Android 2.1. And since the Motorola Droid is getting the update this week it would be safe to assume that the Motorola Cliq isn’t to far behind. To read more on the Android update for both the Motorola Droid and the Motorola Cliq please go to the related post links.
