If you are an HTC Magic owner upset by Rogers’ announcement that the HTC Dream was staying at Android 1.5, you may have some good news. A post from a Rogers rep at Android forums claims that Rogers is putting together a promotion that will provide current HTC Dream owners a limited time opportunity to upgrade to the HTC Magic. Rogers is reportedly still working on the details of the promotion but if it pans out, Dream owners may have a shiny, new Android handset in their future.

Of course we can’t be 100% sure this will be true until they announce something official but it looks to be legitimate.

See the post after the break.

Hi Folks. As promised, I’m here to provide you with some more information

It’s great to hear that everyone is pleased by HTC’s agreement to upgrade Magic to 2.1. We pushed hard on your behalf and are pleased with that part. When it comes to Dream, we share in your frustration that the device does not have the required on-board memory for an upgrade. We’ve reviewed this internally and believe that Dream users should be able to have the same HTC Android experience as those who purchased the Magic. So, we are offering our HTC Dream customers a limited time opportunity to upgrade from their current HTC Dream device to the HTC Magic.

We’re working on finalizing the details of that promotion now but wanted to let you know the great news as soon as possible. Please be patient as this is not yet available in-store, online or through customer care. I will be back next week to provide you with more information. ‬

Stay tuned!
