New to HTC and PPC Phones, but Dec 4 2007, 10:52 PM EST I just ordered the ATT8525 to replace my constantly crashing old Blackberry 7100g. I know the unit will come with WM5, but has anyone summarized what is gained, lost or traded to upgrade to WM6? I've read most of the recent posts and there seems to be some confusion about what is gained or lost. Also, are the advantages really worth it? I know that might be a "personal preference" thing, but with all the difficulty being posted, I'm a little nervous about jumping right in an upgrading the software. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Quote and Reply Post a Reply Do you find this valuable? |

RE: New to HTC and PPC Phones, but Dec 22 2007, 10:38 AM EST I did the upgrade for Alltel PPC6800 seemed alittle faster and seemed to solve the crash issue I was having while using WM5- not much difference in programing, but if your going to do it I would do it before you get settled into your phone because it does erase all old information and you will need to back things up and reinstall.

RE: New to HTC and PPC Phones, but Dec 22 2007, 11:12 AM EST I have upgraded my 8525 and I find it to be more stable than WM5 for me. Also, I like the ribbon in the calendar and the HTML email support.. And even though Windows Live services have been removed, I put it back on through a .cab file i have found and I like it more than Pocket MSN. Messenger allows for multiple conversations now and you can also get Push email support with Hotmail accounts. Overall I am happy with the upgrade.
