Do you want to install 2.1 or do you already have 2.1 and want newer Android versions?
The latest official software version for this phone is on 2.1 and if you want later/newer you need to install a custom rom. We don't provide any support for this though and this will void your warranty so think twice before doing this.
XDA developers is a great place for this stuff though. A lot of skilled users there that probably can help you with this.
