i think u could just flash in the 2.1 firmware in to your phone

And how would I do that?

What's your provider? Not all providers are giving you the 2.1 update.

As GoodSmile said, your other option is to use another version of the system that is either linked to a carrier that has upgraded its phones, or a generic version (unbranded).

There's a good list here but it's hard not to get lost, so look for a generic version of your phone (X10a or X10i depending on what you own).

Then use the FlashTool (you'll need Windows XP - 7) but make sure to read the tutorials first.
