If that information was true for all TyTN devices, that would be great news. Operating my TyTN with Bebe´s WM6 for one week now, I can say that there are worlds between the TyTN under WM5 and WM6:
With WM6
- the TyTN works much faster
- bluetooth inkl. AD2P works stable
- TomTom 6 works stable (without hanging)
- a nice VoIP integration comes along
- TCPMP works stable
In my eyes the TyTN becomes a perfect little tool with WM6 installed on it!
I´s really appreciate a free WM6 upgrade from HTC - it would perfectly fit the TyTN´s hardware.

Oh, I forgot to mention, www.qtek.se is the official distributor for HTC branded devices in Sweden. Info is official and straight from the source.
So, you might want to rephrase that to "...will be good to see a HTC WM6". :-D

I also heard that Vodafone Germany are going to release WM6 updates for Hermes and Herald...
We get the same update i Denmark. BUT. I dont really think that the rom will be any better than the ones we get here. Why? Because when the official releases come I am must certain that some of the Chefs in here will cook some improved roms on top of the official release.
If we look at the M$ history on software - there will be things to improve...hehe.
But - thats my opinion. What are yours?

I don't know.
But unlike the cooked ROMs it is not illegal, does not void my warranty and has full support from HTC.

Well the fact that the P3300 will be upgraded and the P3600 won't is disappointing to say the least!
I just came on to say exactly the same thing, surely the Trinity is a much more capable device for WM6, and newer. I think HTC made a bit of a dumb decision there.

Just sent a mail asking them if they are going to release for p3600 or not.
It really is strange that HTC would release a WM6 upgrade for P3300 and not for P3600. Maybe it has something to do with the GPS? Although I would think it doesn't, since an official upgrade with GPS already came out.
Anyway, the file says it's not the final list of devices that will be able to upgrade. Hopefully, we will see an official WM6 on our Trinity.

My guess is that they spent a lot of resources on getting the much desired ROM update for GPS out that they are putting off the WM6 ROM until later.

I can understand that decision but don't approve it. For the P3300 they don't have a succesor because of the integrated SIRFIII. I don't approve it because my opinion is that the P3600 has been dropped into the market when they knew WM6 was coming too. Just like the PC's sold after november 2006 with Windows XP, you'll get an upgrade for Vista.
They should give us a clean quality WM6 ROM and I'm sure some in this forum can make a much better one from that one
for italian ppl: they should make pressure on TIM...

Thanks, i can read, and did it. But, in fact, in the practice i want to know. The theory i can see...
Hmm, says June at the top and April at the bottom, or is the June date for operator releases and HTC will do their own release in April?
Looks like a full boar ROM will be available to the chefs dead easily now! though i suspect they probably already have them and are tweaking the hell out of them. The cooked roms will always be better as we already know.
And where we'll get it: on the support page of our models, on HTC?
Will Cingular void your warrenty if you download it from HTC and install it?

Yes, this is good news. However, we've heard this all before. New upgrades for WM5.0 in Q1 2007 -- still waiting. "Official" HTC WM5.0 AKU3.3.1 upgrade released by Leaf Wireless in SA that HTC Europe Tech Support knows absolutely nothing about. Personally, I'll believe it when I see it.
In the meantime, JJ, LVSW, et al, keep cooking those ROMs!!!

Edit sorry losai already mention it
It's an old news you've got "Marcdu81" (april) !! Maybe the petition will have an effect !!
This is old news man! HTC already stated that if demand was high they would change views. I will not even bother posting the threads, go search yourself. Think before you post!
Sorry guys,but i've Phone to Htc France and they confirm : No wm6 for Trinity : I ask him this question : Why ? I wait again the answer !

You don't need a ROM from HTC. You can load the Dopod ROM to your device when it is released. If you need a French ROM, I'm sure that someone here will make one from the original Dopod D810 WM6 ROM.
i have an official email from Dopod Australia saying that they will be releasing a WM6 gps version soon (in the next couple of months).

Not quite the same getting your ROM from a company that re-badges these devices. I for one am way too lazy to change everything (boot splash etc) in the upcoming Dopod release to make it exactly like HTC.

it has been months. dopod aus never got the wm5 gps rom. i don't know why they are taking so long... probably because customer support doesn't make them money. even o2 was faster in releasing wm6 to atom life (and the support is crap, i've had 2 o2's)
by the time they release wm6 with gps rom, the d810, wm6 and even maybe gps will be obsolete, and we will all have a new device.

I know, but then... that's even more a reason to release it if one of your children companies is about to beat you to it.
Call me picky, but I want all the ROM version information/splash/logos etc all to be HTC.
HTC seems to have some automated response for my questions, even if you ask WHY the trinity ain't on the list of phones expecting an update, they send a link to the press release.
Growing a little tired of HTC lately, they're even removing the infrared port from their trinity-successor, Kaiser. What will I do with my $40 worth of TV remote software? Damn it!

I doubt if Kaiser will be released shortly - It has a Qualcomm chip in it, see http://www.boygeniusreport.com/gallery/handsets/htc-kaiser-unboxing/?pid=668#picture_nav

A renowed dutch telecom site has announced that the official HTC WM6 ROM update for the P3600 will be available for download on HTC europe site from tomorrow onwards!
for those of you understanding dutch:

Laat dit dit keer geen grap zijn! Het werd eindelijk eens tijd, thanks voor de mededeling.
Let this be no joke this time! Thanks for sharing
oh let this be true!!!
I'm a little tired of HTC promises.
They don´t care about their customers.
Need to see to believe it.
Quoting the official htp press news:
HTC is also offering WM6 upgrades for the most popular devices in its current range. This includes recently launched “messaging” products, which will enjoy the greatest benefits of Windows Mobile 6, such as the HTC Advantage, the HTC TyTN, the HTC S620, and the HTC P4350. The upgrade will also be available for the award-winning HTC P3300, plus some of our operator-branded devices.
Maybe tomorrow will be relased a wm6 upgrade for a branded version of trinity
... but I've an official unbranded P3600, which costs much more than an operator locked device...

Let's hope they do. The lack of WM6 was the only thing putting me off this device. I've been looking for a replacement ever since i shut my M600 in my car door.
I've been deciding between the P3600 and the Touch but I think I've made the right decision!

Me neither. But today in europe still has 13 hours... *crossing fingers*
True. It is common knowledge that most upgrades are being made between 12:00 and 13:00. It is due to human contribution of Carbon Dioxide (CO2). This in fact is the greatest deception in the history of science. We are wasting time, energy and trillions of dollars while creating unnecessary fear and consternation over an issue with no scientific justification. For example, Environment Canada brags about spending $3.7 billion in the last five years dealing with climate change almost all on propaganda trying to defend an indefensible scientific position while at the same time closing weather stations and failing to meet legislated pollution targets.
AAAAAARGGHHHHHHHHHHH!!! I want that rom!!
In Asia the update news was advanced in a week or less.
In Europe i don't think they will give us the update today.
But from them (HTC) that's normal.....
I have feeling that they will never give us the upgrade, but thats me
I think regrettably that we are going to wait for this rom another one moment!

Yes, you have a point there. Personally, I did not mind loosing the warrenty, but that may be different for others. I used the phone for about 6 months before flashing, to make sure that it was working perfectly though.

My device was replaced already... so I'm more cautious. I always flash my DVD player ROM with newest version but Artemis is a little too expansive for me to experiment. Besides, if you have unofficial ROM it's harder to diagnose source of problems and to gain HTC support help. On the other side HTC support is so poor that it may be not worth of consideration.
So I'm happy that people have possibility to try our cookers ROMs, but I will wait for HTC (about 2 weeks I hope).
