HTC has confirmed that there will be no upgrade to Android 1.6 for the Rogers Wireless versions of the HTC Magic and HTC Dream.
Can I upgrade my Rogers Magic device to Android 1.6?
HTC is not currently planning any Android 1.6 upgrades for Rogers Dream or Magic. Android 1.6 was only made available for “Google”-branded devices such as the G1. It is not available for HTC-branded products such as the Dream or Magic, which use Android 1.5. We believe that Android 1.5 is a stable and reliable software platform that delivers a terrific user experience
Rogers Wireless was the first national Canadian carrier to introduce Android to Canada when it released the HTC Magic and HTC Dream this past summer.
Reminiscent of Windows Mobile upgrades often not being passed down to slightly older devices, I’m sure that more than a few unhappy customers will sour on Android and on Rogers as a result of this decision. I know that I would not be too happy.
