HTC Hero Getting Android 2.1 April 16th?

hero-otaVerizon recently pushed the Android 2.1 update to Motorola Droid’s around America and now its time for the HTC Hero to get its dose of goodness. Continue crying Droid Eris and Sprint Hero owners… this one is only rumored for the European HTC Hero. That doesn’t mean you won’t get it sooner or later, it just means this latest rumor is not associated.

According to HTC Club, an inquiry regarding the 2.1 update for the Hero was sent to HTC who responded with the following:
