Go fuck yourself, Motorola

[Mikey]

When I came back to this country in June last year, the wife and I needed new cell phones. After much research, we decided on the Motorola Cliq XT. The phones ran Android 1.5, but Motorola had an upgrade to 2.1 in the works, so all would be fine.

Motorola promised and promised and promised the upgrade but delivered nothing but delays. Once the update was about a year overdue, they sent an email to all their customers advertising the "NEW CLIQ2" running Android 2.1 (already obsolete by that point). A few weeks later, they released official word: after extensive testing, the Cliq XT (my phone) could not support Android 2.1 and will not recieve any further updates.

They lied to me and a lot of other people. Fuck them, I'm never buying anything else from Motorola. I hope they all die of asshole cancer.

I fixed it, though. As of now, my phone is rooted and running Gingerbread. Motorola took a year to give me Eclair and said it wasn't possible. I ditched their Motoblur crap and installed Gingerbread in an afternoon. Suck it, Motorola.

Also, holy shit! Gingerbread is a fucking revelation after running Cupcake for so long. I love this OS.
