Telus HTC Hero 2.1 Update Appears, Then Disappears?

Very interesting. We got tipped at about 9:34AM PDT this morning about an Android 2.1 update link for the HTC Hero on the Telus website. I got around to my email at around 1PM PDT and surely enough, saw this little info box dated September 16th about the 2.1 update. However when I clicked the link, I would be taken to the downloads section and no such update was available for download.

But here’s where it gets really interesting, once I went back to that original page to take a screenshot, the info box was gone and now there is no sign that this update ever existed (I checked every province page.)

So what does this all mean? Well for starters, your update is coming and it’s probably coming soon. Maybe Telus put it out before they were ready? Now I’m not sure if the actual download file ever existed on the site for download but they were definitely getting ready for it. We know you’ve been patiently waiting forever now. You can be sure i’m bookmarking that page but if you happen to see anything (or maybe even saw or better yet GOT the update?!) you’re gonna let me know right?
