I think the last date I heard was April 20th, but the latest rumours are now suggesting early or mid May. I'm following @androidcentral on Twitter in part because they are pretty on the ball regarding the status of the various handsets and upgrades.0

It would appear from the previous availability of updates from HTC (and comments on various forums) that the 'Three' Heros are the first network branded handsets to get updated.
Wild optimism... It's great!0 -

i emailed htc and this is the reply i got:-
Dear Mr xxxxx xxxx, Thank you for contacting us. In regards to the 2.1 update, Htc will be providing a free update to Éclair for European HTC Hero variants.’ starting in June', anyone owning an HTC Hero will receive an initial preparatory update, shortly followed by the full Éclair update. For the full update, we would recommend using a free wi-fi hotspot or an unlimited data plan, otherwise standard data charges may apply." I trust that this resolves your query, please do not hesitate to contact us again if required. Thank you for contacting HTC. Kind regards, Federico F. HTCTake every day as it comes!!0 -
It's always 6 weeks away.
Never coming I reckon....
Hopefully my BT one will be one of the first to upgrade - the BT ones are unbranded and unlocked and don't have any special ROM customisation.British Ex-pat in British Columbia!0 -

I have an Orange Hero so will I have to find an update for this particular version or will there be a one version fits all update?0 -
