Verizon hasn’t actually informed us when the update will be available, but an official document intercepted by Droid-Life shows evidence that the update is now ready, and the only thing that needs to happen now is for Verizon to push it out to handsets.

If you head over to Droid-Life, you’ll be able to see full details on what is included in the update. Aside from the interface changes you get from upgrading to Android 2.3 Gingerbread, key features also include a new download manager App, multi-touch key chording, dock icons, email and messaging fixes/enhancements, App and power management details, improved battery life via Bluetooth and much more.

If you have a Droid 2 Global, we strongly recommend you check out the change log for full information. It’s fair to say that the handset is pretty dated now, so this Gingerbread update couldnt have come at a better time. It may also sweeten the blow for those of you who don’t have the resources to upgrade to the sexy new Droid Bionic if and when it becomes available later on this Summer.

Are you waiting for Gingerbread on the Droid 2 Global?

Currently WireFly want just $79.99 for the white or gray Droid 2 Global smartphone, this price requires you to agree a two-year Verizon deal.

WireFly’s price saves you $120 when compared to the price of the Droid 2 Global on VerizonWireless.com, also unlike Verizon’s website WireFly does require a mail-in rebate.

The only bad thing about WireFly’s listing is that prices are different for existing Verizon customers, if you are an existing customer you have to pay $119.99 instead, which is still pretty reasonable.

Which color do you prefer white or gray? (we have embedded pics below)

In case you still don’t know, the Droid 2 Global is the new name for the ‘World Edition’ Droid 2 which was first teased over a month ago.

The Global version of the Droid 2 comes equipped with a few notable additions from the original Droid 2, with the main one being a faster 1.2Ghz processor, as opposed to the 1Ghz chip on the old model.

Other specs confirmed include a 5 megapixel with dual LED flash, flash 10.1 support, 8GB of internal storage plus more with SD, 3G Mobile hotspot, and a choice of two colors – Dark Sapphire or Winter White.

As we informed you in a previous report, the Droid 2 Global is set to launch on Thursday November 11th – we’ll update you if that date changes. Check out the full spec sheet over at Droid-Life.

The Global Edtion of the Droid 2 has been popping up all over the place, and according to a report from Droid-Life, November 11 will be the date you can expect to see the handset come to life.

This has left the Droid 2 feeling a tiny bit unwanted, but don’t fret as the ye-old Droid 2 is not going away just yet. You will be able to get this baby for $149.99 via the Verizon website, and it is expected to be available for that price till around January next year. You can see proof of this in the screenshot we have posted below.

But that is not all as the hugely sought after HTC Droid Incredible has also fallen in price down to $150 too.

Infact, the Droid Incredible is still incredibly popular around the world meaning that the Droid 2 might be in for a hard time when it comes to sales figures.

With both phones now available at a similar price, what phone would you go for if you had to make a choice? Decisions, decisions…

We have seen some pictures of the white model before, but Engadget has obtained an image from Verizon’s rebate system which reveals that the Droid 2 global will be available in a choice of colors.

While the image doesn’t actually reveal what colors they are, this Droid-Life report suggests that the two model names relate to the white edition of the handset, and also a funky model in blue.

We haven’t seen any hard proof of this yet though, but a Droid 2 in blue certainly sounds rather tasty. We’ll update you when we hear more on this.
