Ok so it seems froyo may be released on the 21st.

I found this :Samsung Epic, Galaxy Tab, and Transform OTA's coming from Sprint March 21 | Android Central

and this from wwjoshdew: request download ticket | ifile.it, this is "open source froyo update.zip" if anyone wants to download it and start looking around.

Hope someone looks into that and lets us know. I would if I had the know how. I am still eagerly waiting for stock 2.2 so that my front facing camera will work with face chat. Cheers for the luck of the Irish!

I'm overjoied about this that's for sure!

as am i
and according to vamp, the old kernels we have will work so it should be a pretty seemless transition, no building fr the ground up.

In the announcement posted above, Sprint didnt mention anything about implementing a graphics driver for the Transform in the OTA Froyo release-- something that is sorely missing in 2.1. A graphics driver would arguably have at least as big of an impact on the Transform's performance than Froyo would. But maybe the meaning of a graphics driver is too technical for average people to grasp, so Sprint chose not to mention it in their announcement. It'll be interesting to see.

No matter, I plan on implementing my own drivers in as well. In the new Froyo ROMs that SDX will be whipping up for us, I have no doubt there will be some nice drivers and Froyo goodness minus the crap.

If that happens then I will be looking to go back to the Transform myself. Froyo along with Video drivers, front facing camera, slide out keyboard and a great form factor will turn this phone into a winner.

I really do hope that they update sometime this week, cause I talked to Samsung, and like always they have "no idea" about what I'm talking about even though I showed them the link. They're customer service is horrible -.-

Haha, we don't have to worry about the official update anymore. The official Froyo source code has been released for the Transform and SDX is already working on a few builds for us.
