Both handsets are now running Android 2.1 with the Sense UI. If you're wanting Android 2.1 on your Hero, meanwhile, as it's still running the original 1.5 build, an OTA update has been going out recently; make sure your phone is charged, powered on and preferably connected via WiFi and you should be offered the update.
