Typical Moto Garbage

Yep, and yet they prove again why they are garbage and should be out of business at this point, more or less probably not very cost effective to roll out the update now when they can be making big bucks on their new devices instead. Hopefully they do go out of business soon.

Well?

What they need is to hire some of those 17 year olds who developed roms for the Cliq over at xda-dev and fire the over paid tools they have working for them now.
