already a post regarding this....
So are the new ROMs peing posted at the moment based on this or still being derived from other sources ?
Looks like there is plenty of life left in the phone yet. Though I'm starting to lean towards getting myself a Nokia E90. Does not have the enthusiastic Dev base that WM has though...

Windows Mobile 6 Professional for I-mate Jasjar or Qtek 9000
I called sales for On The Go Solutions, Inc., www.onthegosolutions.com website, Ph. # 1-866-746-4684 out of Skokie, IL and the sales person told me that H.T.C out of Taiwan released the "Windows Mobile 6 Professional" for the I-mate Jasjar & Qtek 9000 1 month ago. If somebody out there could get this download that would be greatly appreciated and share this with us. Or if someone is interested in purchasing either device the onthegosolutions technical support upgrades this device for you with Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional and they will also give you the download link which you can pass onto all the xda-developers members.
I just checked the club imate download web site, and they post the old Windows Mobile 5 AKU 2 for i-mate Jasjar.
Wow.. I'm wondering which web site we can download the official WM6 ROM for i-mate Jasjar.
There is indeed not a download link, I just send a e-mail I-mate, to verify this information, I'll hope I get a response soon, because I'm sure to use my device even longer.
I reveived the basic mail back with a automized awnser,
"With regards to your query please note, that i-mate is progressing plans to make WM 6.0 upgrade available on as many of its devices as possible. We are investigating the possibilities with our product suppliers and Microsoft at this time, and we will be in a position to clarify the situation by the end of this month. Please bear with us while we investigate what is possible and keep a close eye on the www.clubimate.com website for further news and updates."
So it is the basic delay to do it on the "next" monday and the same awnser I have been reading troughout different forums and topics
Wrong..Absolutely wrong........
I just had a chat with clubimate representative..which is as follows...
You're now talking to Chloe from 'Device Support' The topic is : Not Provided

I wonder how true this report is...???
Can you imagine if someone actually buys a Universal from them and they end up sending a link to one of the customized ROMs from XDA Developers site?
...
Update regarding the Windows Mobile 6 for the I-mate Jasjar & Qtek 9000. I called and spoke with Dovid from technical support at the On The Go Solutions Store and he informed me that the "Windows Mobile 6 is from Jwrightmcps cooked rom" which is not the official rom released from H.T.C from Tawian. According to the polls comparing to the other cooked roms Jason's rom is the top rom at this time. So this is where the www.onthegosolutions or www.imatephonestore is getting their rom from Jason out of Chicago, IL. and advertising this on their website.

Just as I thought, A SCAM TO MAKE PEOPLE BUY THEIR PRODUCT.
I wonder if JWright know about this???
According to Dovid technical support person at the On The Go Solutions or I-matephone store Jason does know about this which when I spoke to Dovid technical support said that Jason is submitting his cooked rom to them which in my opinion is false advertising. When I first had called yesterday the lady I spoke to in sales first told me that the "Windows Mobile 6 Professional" for the I-mate Jasjar & Qtek 9000 was a release from H.T.C out of Taiwan which was a 1 month ago. Then when she called me later in the day on Friday she told me that this was incorrect information and switched me over to Dovid which I had questioned him that I was a xda-developers member and if this was possibly a cooked rom because there are 5 or 6 other xda-developer members cooking up cooked roms. This information as to my understanding is 100% correct information. I also called T-Mobile my service provider for my Qtek 9000 and told technical support that they need to contact H.T.C out of Taiwan once Windows Mobile 6 Professional is available for the Qtek 9000 and contact me once they have this. I also told T-Mobile technical support that if they receive enough calls from their customers requesting the "Windows Mobile 6 Professional' upgrade once available H.T.C will then request this for T-Mobile and not give this to any other person that has a Qtek 9000, I-mate Jasjar, etc or similar device branded by H.T.C

Oh no! not again
Are you kidding me I spent $1700 NZD on the IMATE Jas Jar ( I could have got a laptop) and there is doubt about an upgrade to WM6..
Are you serious....???$%#@?%?
Jas Jar have only been out for a short time surely the expected operational time span is longer than this ...

I'm afraid not, its a phone. Usual lifespan of a phone is about a year to 18 months, the jasjar/mda-pro/universal has already lasted much longer than most.
A phone, how dear you sir... its a pocket PC, tell me which phone can do all the functionality of Jas jar.
Pocket Pc are a mini laptop.
This does not remove the responsibility of IMATE/HTC to put out a OS update for WM6.

I can't agree more!
We invest lots of money on a PDA an the brands don't want to support their customers after a single year.
Not all universal owners bought their PDA at it's lunching...
wm6 for universal
Hi
to all you people who doubt whether the wm6 is official or not:
1.wm6 is 'official'
2.you people are asking for software support from the vendors who are only capable of etching their logo on a finished product.
3.there are different ROM versions and all are cooked because no hardware vendors have officially launched it yet.
4.All you members are familiar with 'search engines',use one,find wm6,or go to microsoft.com and you will be enlightened.
5.I am using wm6 on my o2 exec with a 4 GB SD,everything is flawless and HTML mail support is just superb.
" NO REPEATEDLY BUSTED 4GB CARD( THRICE)SHOULDN'T HAVE SPKEN TOO EARLY."
So stop this demand to have an official ROM from o2 or i-mate, for nobody demanded a wm5 official rom for a wm2003 BA?
Hi,
Q:- What I am thinking and what other are thinking?
I am old mobile set user and time to time I change my set, get many updates and support from mobile manufacture as well other developer many software.
I am 52 years old man and my life is so short but my currently mobile is giving me big tension and confusion.
I am using I-Mate pocket pc Model PH10B, unfortunately I can get any benefit, many software is not working needs to be upgrade but still I am failed to upgrade, all the site on web is so confusing.
If some one help me in easy way, I will really thankful.
I am so worried to all who are using windows mobile and they living without any support, Is it good marketing of I-Mate mobile?
I will never suggest to any body to purchase that kind of mobile set if support is not available.
Regards,
Anwar Mehdi

Hey guys, I'm new to the XDA-Developers forum.
I would really appreciate some help purchasing my first PDA. Price is my biggest priority. I would prefer something $250 and lower. I need something with Windows Mobile 5 or 6. I would prefer WM6 or one that I can use a pirated copy of WM to upgrade to 6. As I understand it, not all PDAs will upgrade to WM6. I am currently looking at the one below.
http://www.buy.com/prod/hp-ipaq-rx4...-refurbished/q/loc/111/205510063.html#cRevSec
So basically these are the questions I have.
What cheap PDA would you recommend?
Is WM6 worth spending extra money to get?
What improvements are there from WM5 to WM6
Is the rx4240 compatible with an illegal copy of WM6?
I would truly appreciate any and all help.
Looks like a real nice device. I couldn't comment to much on them because I last used WM 2003 then switched to palm with the Treo 650 then bought a palm lifedrive I got an iPhone and now I dropped it for an AT&T Tilt. So far I think WM6 is the best OS out there hands down (debateable but one man's opinion). Do you want strictly a PDA or have you thought about a PPC Phone with WM6?
Afternoon guys, Flame me if this has already been discussed but thought I pass the news of my repaired Vario 3... It had upon it Winmob 6.1...HEHEHEHE oh
Unfortunately I had to pass the poor little blighter back has it still had not fixed my original issue.
Thankfully as this issue has been going on for a while they kindly replaced it with a brand new Vario 3
The bad news the new Vario 3 had Winmob 6.0... Ah never mind. Any how, SBE are T-Mobile’s logistics repair centre and if this is the case then the official release should be soon on the web site (Well I hope, but I could be proven wrong.)
Apologises is this is old news... I've not had the time to search the issue, but know from past experience it can take a while from SBE to official.
This is all good and all but I don't understand why t - mobile have taken so damm long to rollout windows mobile 6 to its HTC devices. Its been out for a while now after all ...

I spoke with a Tmobile insider, I've even seen the Demo room in Hatfield where all the little devices are on show to the business peeps. I got the impression from both parties that the testing of this device along side the network must be fully working. If anything fails they start again and put the date back. But may I stress both parties were coy to admit what the faults were.
I dared to mention the Vario4 and a smirk came along his face with the Phrase "i'm not at libilty to say when that device will be available"
About time! I'd almost given up hope!
Shame I've fallen in love with Manila type ROM's now.... but this should be useful to flash the device back to stock T-Mobile whenever I come to sell it on or have a problem.
Thanks for the news, I'll keep a look out for it.
(And hopefull Tmobile will release the Vario4 soon, Im looking to upgrade in December! If not... I'll have to take my business somewhere else!)
I recently received my UK Vario III back from repair to find it had been updated to 6.1 too. Unfortunately it seemed to be buggier and leakier than the original 6.0 :-(
I've since put PDACornerUltimate on and find it a much more worthwhile upgrade
Hey, i think as my first post i should explain myself; I recently bought myself a Compaq ipaq 3630 with pocket PC 2002. That is when i stumbled on to your guy's site , Although i cant find any useful information on a rom kitchen with this device i am not going to give up on it (the battery is dead so i cant store items in RAM). So since i now have an interest in windows CE programming i was wondering if there were cheap windows mobile devices that i could play around with that has a reasonable rom kitchen?
Samsung i900 Omnia should be very cheap now. I'm actually selling mine right now to upgrade. Good phone. There is still development going on with this device but it's dying slowly since the phone is from 2008.
You can find more about ROMs and its kitchens here: http://www.modaco.com/category/368/i900-general-omnia-rom-discussion/
