I'd much prefer an announcement saying they're flipping off Redmond and signing on with Palm's Linux-based OS...]]>Apr 19th 2007 4:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 19th 2007 4:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 19th 2007 5:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/It's the same device..

WM5 and WM6 rules baby!]]>Apr 19th 2007 5:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
BB's are for employees, nothing more than an IT controlled e-leash.

Palm and WM5/6 are for people who have a life.]]>May 22nd 2007 12:56AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 19th 2007 6:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
Fortunately, a lot of us are more concerned with what our devices do than how they look...

As for the upgrade - What? Nothing for the Wizard/MDA/Vario crowd?]]>Apr 21st 2007 8:28AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
BTW - Ryan, every try developing software for C@ntberry's? Its a whole lot easier on the WM platform !! ha ha!! ]]>Apr 19th 2007 5:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 19th 2007 5:46PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
So, sorry Ryan, you're wrong: you don't have to be stupid or a die hard MS fan to use and like WinMo.]]>Apr 19th 2007 5:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 26th 2007 5:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
Personally, I didn't want to make the switch to WinMo (5) from Palm (and this after chucking my Blackberry against a wall), but my Wizard has been the most reliable out of the three (though secretly I'm hoping Palm gets their groove back with Linux).

BTW a little birdie (torrent) told me that WM6 works on the 8125. :)]]>Apr 19th 2007 6:16PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 19th 2007 7:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 19th 2007 7:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 20th 2007 9:53AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
Also its a pity they exclusively use Windows Mobile, Symbian is the king od mobile OS in my opinion (With Linux 2nd)]]>Apr 19th 2007 7:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Personally (I'm sure many share my view) I think the HTC P3600 / Orange SPV M700 should also be included for an upgrade.

Please sign the online petition and hopefully they will include the P3600 / M700]]>Apr 19th 2007 7:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/ WinXP iow: mostly the same, but the UI is completely done over, and some of the core features have been fleshed out and worked over. Its also very speedy. The improvements to the messaging client are VERY nice.

To those who wonder if the 6700 (Apache) will get WM6, chances are pretty solid in favor of one never existing (and HTC never having even worked on one). The primary seller of Apaches is Verizon. Verizon HATES PDA's because its loaded with tons of functionality (and near unlimited features with all the PPC software out there) that they can't charge you for. If they aren't going to make any money on a WM6 upgrade they have no incentive to release it. Hell they would have to spend time, resourcse and money on a WM6 upgrade, so that gives them an incentive NOT to make a WM6 build.]]>Apr 19th 2007 7:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=326532&highlight=helmi_c]]>Oct 3rd 2007 5:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
WM5 and WM6 RULES!!! (Blackberrys are okay... only if you like to have your beloved e-mail go down! =P)]]>Apr 19th 2007 8:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 19th 2007 9:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
Yes, you will be able to upgrade your phone. I have the beta ROM on it now and it rocks.]]>Apr 19th 2007 9:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 20th 2007 4:48AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/03/26/cingulars-treo-750-blackjack-and-8525-get-wm6-treatment/]]>Apr 20th 2007 10:11AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
Its a tricky upgrade but it can be pulled it off. ;-) Honestly upgrading the ROM was the easy part. Backing up the existing ROM was much harder because Cingular intentionally makes their ROM not work with the HTC ROM tools so I had to back rev the ROM to an official HTC ROM first then do the "Faria ROM" upgrade after that.]]>Apr 20th 2007 1:53PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 21st 2007 8:29AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Apr 21st 2007 10:47AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
Windows mobile is great, but it doesn't make much for a functional cell phone. Hopefully WM6 will be better.]]>Apr 27th 2007 1:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/Jun 20th 2007 2:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/http://www.engadget.com/2007/04/19/htc-reveals-official-windows-mobile-6-upgrade-plans/
