According to a couple sleuthy sleuths, when Verizon, the Big Red AT&T killer, launches the Droid 2 next month, it will arrive with the highly-coveted Android 2.2 (Froyo) on board. This is a good thing. Because Android 2.2 is faster and better than Android 2.1.

But not only that, Android 2.2 comes with a built-in WiFi hotspot creator… oh, wait. Verizon won’t let that happen. But should they choose to load it with Swype… oh, wait. It has a superior hardware QWERTY keyboard. In all seriousness, Froyo should bring a number of improvements to the phone, which, if true, will be the first to ship with the Froyo as a retail device, including highly-touted javascript performance improvements.

Couple that with the 1GHZ OMAP processor (faster than a speeding Snapdragon) and an actual usable keyboard, and you have yourself a winner, folks.

Let’s just hope the bootloader is hackable. Verizon? I’m looking at you!
