Issue No. 16992 in the Android Open Source Project has to do with Exchange support on the Xoom after the Android 3.1 update -- namely how it's not working.
Comment No. 28 on the issue, apparently made by a Googler, seems to address this, saying:
"There should be a 3.2 update coming within days, and that should help those of you with the Xoom."

I hope this is true

I don't even know what its like to be using 3.0! That is how good updates are lol.
So it looks like the US will be getting 3.2 before the UK even gets 3.1... seriously Motorola, what a joke

You are not alone. I take pleasure in knowing that none of my money will be spent on Motorola products again. I am happy that the margin of error on their part is so blatantly large that there will be tons of people who walk away from this experiance unwilling to ever buy a product from Motorola again on principle.
I like common sense of it all.
Let me rephrase that for you.

I thought I learnt my lesson with the Moto Atrix, but no, I had to go and get the MZ601 (EU) tab on Optus and its still sitting on 3.0 - probably never to see the light of 3.1 or 3.2...
Motorola really need to get their Fcuking asses into gear and demand carriers release FW on time and within a set period of the SDK being available.... Until they do this, they'll never be a top 3 manufacturer ever
From what I just read on the Moto forum, it seems the firmware approval process goes :
Carrier -> Moto -> Google
I honestly think it's Google holding up the approval process and moto is getting kicked in the teeth for it, same way they did with microSD.
I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt for now.

i can't imagine they will think twice about non us updates. If they ignored us for 3.1 then 3.2 will probably be the same. I dont really understand this but how can they ignor the rest of the world ??
The US is the larger market, also Motorola is a American company.
Just like Japanese companys release updates and products in Japan before anywhere else.
did you see the pie chart for android versions?
3.1 has 0.5% and 3.0 had 0.4% or something
'most' people have 3.1 now - so maybe they just imagine that most people have a US Xoom (or one of the other many models that have the 3.1 updates..)
Moto might think they are catering for a minority?
i thought it was interesting most 3.x were 3.1 though
You know that our wonderful developers will be making it possible for all of us to get the latest updates ASAP.

Probably. But the version that passed the FCC has no US 3G (AT&T or T-Mo) so odds are it will be European, though I don't know why it'd go thru the FCC if it's European. We all know Moto isn't stupid enough to release a version here without 3G
It has to pass through FCC so that it can operate in the US, for people traveling abroad and such, thus making it a "world phone".
I frankly like the way they're going with the commercial..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPYM-XTqcec
It was pretty head on advertising. Now the 'droid name is out there and more people will be asking about it. Should have been the direction T-Mo should have taken in advertising for the G1. I don't anyone is running out trying to get that new phone Whoopi Goldberg has.
I like the phone in theory... but since it's not an HTC, I don't think I could let myself get it. Is there a Motorola version of XDA?

samsung is holding an event on the 16th to show off the media hub on the galaxy s phones and to show off some new models. I'd expect them to make an official announcement then since they've been rather quiet recently.

eh, the G2 isn't much of an upgrade over the slide so I'd say you made the right choice.
Well with verizon's version of the galaxy s out, i think there is nothing to hold a massive upgrade to all versions back.
given that the tab is going to be running froyo real soon, the galaxy s phones shouldn't be that far behind. in fact, i think they should get the update first, but hey, what do i know
is this the latest update we'll get? will we be getting 3.0?

considering the number of devices sold, we'll probably get 3.0
Gingerbread would be great and a good pr move on the part of samsung. My expectation is low though simply because they will want people to buy new phones. Gingerbread will be an easy upgrade too because out would be vanilla with touchwiz and widgets being addons. The Tab has similar hardware and it may get it, making a custom ROM likely.

Last I checked, Samsung hasn't actually offered a phone to 100 carriers around the planet, including all 4 US national carriers.
As long as a single large American carrier demands the next version of Android, we ALL will get it.
I don't see the connection between froyo and the gps fix. If it was an android fix then we should have a fix already, I expect it is firmware based.

Im thinking this is also true, which leads me to think that this phone is going to be pretty damn awesome after 2.2. Then again this could just be wishful thinking...
Just wondering how the GalaxyS community is going to react if 2.2 isn't 100% PERFECT.... :grabs popcorn:
mmmm popcorn.... mmmm (visits microwave...)
anyone whining bout the gps fix needs to check out rooting and flashing eugenes vibrant 9 rom, ive made this comment like 15 times buuuuuut. i get a lock within 10meters in only 10 seconds with the gps on and the cell tower assist feature on. no nead to play around in Lbstestmode menus just turn on location settings in the menu open maps and find "my location"... and this is inside my apartment....
I cant wait for ALL the bonuses in 2.2 like flash and included wifi tethering but do we really need to make a million threads about it??? lol

This is for the galaxy s.... IN SPAIN. This does not apply to people with the vibrant. I would assume the U.S. is more of a priority to Samsung, therefore froyo should be out before then.

Well, Samsung is a Korean company first off. Second of all, carriers don't lock/change their handsets like the US does, so it gets much easier to update when you take the carrier out of the equation. This is why Europe/Asia get new phones and the updates for those phones before the US.
That is just how it is.

Just remember that we only make up a small portion of the world and also that the galaxy s came out before the vibrant. It makes more sense for samsung to update that first.

Holy crap will everyone just shut up about Froyo. Enjoy the damn phone that you have. Its not like our phones are piles of crap. People are making Froyo out to be some mythical unicorn update. But I'm sure once we get Froyo the same people will be complaining that we don't have Gingerbread yet because the Nexus 1 is getting it in December.

Damn straight! I wish I were mod, then I could lock each and every thread about Froyo.
Lol whats funny is that engadget also reported that the UK Offical Samsung Mobile twitter page reported that

http://www.tmonews.com/2010/08/samsung-testing-gps-fix-for-galaxy-s-phones/
See two pieces of proof something is coming in September, we still have 10 days so lets see what happens.
So We do have like 3 Dates if you want to call it that.
One is September 23, 2010 for Froyo (2.2) which is supposibly for the International Galaxy S. Maybe it'll be compatible with all. Who Knows?
Two is September 29, 2010 for Froyo (2.2) which is for Galaxy S, IDK if all phones or Just International. IDK. I got this date from T-Mobile TODAY. I Called acted like i didnt know Anything about Android and was asking questions about The Samsung Vibrant. The guy said it comes with Android 2.1 but it'll get Android 2.2 soon. I asked if he knew a date, he said hes not for sure but he Read on a Forum somewhere about September 29, 2010. We'll See.
Three is Late October 2010. Which was told TODAY by Samsung Spain and posted on Engadget. So we have 10 days til September is over we'll see what happens. Thats all i know for now.
I'm Really eager like the rest of you to find out when our phones will get 2.2. Not only for Speed Improvement but for GPS Fixes (if implemented), 3 button hardware fix (if implemented) and of course Flash 10, Chome to Phone, the New G-Mail, Google Voice, and Tethering etc.
As eager as I am to get Froyo, I'd rather wait a little longer and let Samsung do it right than have them push something that's been rushed and running like crap. Based on the recent leaks I've seen, the most current Froyo builds have been buggy and not optimized at all.
I think late October/early November is my limit though. If they push it back further, I'm not supporting Samsung anymore. I'll switch to the G2. I can trust HTC will for sure push Gingerbread over to that phone. Who knows what Samsung will do with the Galaxy S then.
Fanboys need to stfu. You do realize many of us have buggy devices, and the fixes are being held up for froyo, right?
Dom't be idiots. Use your brains. The OS is a small issue right now. We want oir phones to work as advertised.
Yes, these buggy devices ARE complete and utter crap.

Some point to Google being the problem, but I suspect its Motorola and their distain for anything outside the US. I wont be buying their products again.
As an interim measure I suggest using a 3rd party launcher such as ADW or Launcher Pro. have found the Xoom to be much more stable and a pleasure to use with these great apps. 3.01 is frankly a disgrace.

I'm also angry and disappoint. The hardware of Xoom is really good, but the customer service is really horrible if you are non US. I think this will be my first & last Motorola product I will have (unless its for free).
To be honest, I quit giving a ****, I wont get rid of it but moto is on the list of people with **** customer service not to buy from again. There is nothing I hate more than big companies who will take all your money then screw you.

Like Lothaen I have the Wifi only and upgraded to the US image and 3.1. It's great but that doesn't excuse the fact that Moto are holding back the 3.1 update outside the US. When I ordered the Xoom it was my impression that it would be a Google Experience device. That's not the case if you're outside the US.
Don't get me wrong, I love this thing... I just think Moto could be doing a better job.

I added them to the similar list as Comet - although comet still beat Moto for me... I'll definitely avoid buying anything that could go wrong from them again... TV/vacuum etc. - nothing that has the potential to be repaired by them...
