On Wednesday Verizon Wireless announced that Droid X users would start receiving the update on Friday, May 27. According to Verizon, enhancements that come with the update include a new user interface with new colors, a download manager for your apps and attachments, faster access to the numeric keyboard mode, and autosuggestions to group your contacts faster.
Update instructions are posted here. You can either download it manually, which is useful when you're roaming, or wait for the over-the-air update.
This means that a Motorola employee wasn't fibbing on Monday when he told a forum of disgruntled Droid users, all still running Android 2.2 Froyo, that their Gingerbread updates were on the way. He specified that Droid X was scheduled to receive the update by "the end of the second quarter of the year," (i.e. June), barring Verizon's approval. Other Droid phones are scheduled to receive the update by the end of the third quarter, he said.
