Welcome to the forum
Have you ever heard of Google?
"After a long wait, Microsoft has finally
identified 11th May 2009 as the official release date for its latest Windows Mobile 6.5"

yeah but tody is 13th and I dont see WM 6.5....

thats my point its the 13th and no press conference yet
"and i found this after searching this in google"

You guys are right!
I was thinking we are on May 6th...
My apologize

yeah i've been searching for it also, and apparently the May 11th date wasn't the public release date,.. IF they released it at all its for business or for the companies to start preparing their phones for them for the summer or fall...
But as long as a public release, nothing yet.. and no date is given either.

Yeah, it's not like a PC, where you can just grab Windows and install it. It has to be cooked by the vendor.

Then what is that 6.5 what we are seeing on this forum? From where the developers got it. I installed on my phone but it didn't work for me.

Any word on the ROM update from HTC?

I was poking around the threads and I know they "promised" us a comprehensive update by the end of February with some fixes, but has it been released yet? all I know of is the crap update that theyve had for a while (version 1.62.502.0 for ATT). '
If anyone could chime in and enlighten me and a few others on this it would be appreciated, and if I just happened to miss the announcement of the official update (which I dont think I did), close this thread and let it slide down to the bottom. Thanks.
end of march...

well........they also did promised us a "rich media experience"
That's true...
HTC comes out with unique and REALLY awesome phones.... but they give us **** crap software and ROM's to run on these awesome phones.
Correct ... end Feb slipped to end Mar ... still 6.0 though, no word on 6.1 other than "after end Mar"

Anyone know when a new DCS ROM is coming

running DCSv1.7 - is there any plans to release a new version of this rom - tried most of them and this is the most stable for my handset.

Sending the creator a PM will not help since he hasnt showed up as of march (he actually was no where to be found from feb to march then he showed up in march for a day then dissapeared again), (someone correct me if im wrong) but creating a new thread wont help either. just search for dcs 1.17 and you'll find the thread.
nevertheless dont get your hopes high as the dcs' roms have not been updated for quite a while, and as a former dcs user i would have loved for this roms to be continued but it probably wont happen. I also might suggest giving up waiting for it. JPHCCFC hope this help clarified all your questions.

it means that once apple opened their applications to the public many developers wanted to discover what they have been missing.
*However, most users here at xda find everything they need before transferring their knowledge for ****ty ass corporations attempting to label "their" concept innovative.

Which is your favorite 6.5 rom?

Which is your favorite 6.5 rom and build and why? Speed, least number of bugs, or are you convinced that 6.1 is better? Just curious.
As far build numbers go, Im assuming that the higher the number, the faster and more bug free, or is there some finalized RC build out there?
Erm the higher the number the latest the build number, WM 6.5 gets officially released on the 11th May. 6.5 is far far batter then 6.0 and 6.1 imho. I am currently running Chinhe wm 6.5F 21501 build. I think its his 1st attempt at making a ROM and it runs sweet as, very fast, not found any bugs so far except I had to set up the internet settings on it.
I cant wait till 6.5 gets officially released and more cooking takes place.

Abusalza's
I think for a 'beta' Abusalza's is the best. I have tried a number of 6.5's but overall they do not compare in a 'great' way.
Hope this helps!

but I did learn something good from this thread - we get official WM6.5 tomorrow!
I am on pins and needles, don't think I can sleep with anticipation.
Wow can't believe this thread lasted over 12 hours without being hit by the lovely Closed........

You can now sleep well... It looks like the WinMo blog was misinterpreted and the 'release' at TechEd tomorrow is just a presentation of the latest version.

I only heard that they were planning on it to be as innovative and ground breaking as WM 6 , 6.1 and 6.5.
Stop being so mean people, he's new. Jeez.
No, Windows Mobile 7 will not be released anytime soon. The problem is that 6.5 hasn't even been officially released, and what I mean by that is that they release phones with it included, so therefore, 7 will not be released soon.

+ he's not new been around since dec 08, that's not far off me so am i a noob?
"That is 4-5 months is not long?"
Please search before creating a new thread.
WM7 facts are far and few between but we know there will be no official 6.5 for the Kaiser, so don't expect anything offical WM7 wise.
When WM7 builds start leaking we'll start trying to get it working on the Kaiser for sure.
Til' then, I'll close this before the regulars start revolting (actually they are pretty revolting already )
