Windows Mobile 6.1?

Has anyone heard or learned something about the new WM6.1?
Some people say that the the main changes are the following:
-Copy / Paste
- Domain Enroll in Settings (Enrolling in a domain will connect your device with company resources.)
- New home screen (pan left and right to check out missed calls, notifications like email, sms, etc.)
- Change Master Security Code
- Added text input settings
- Recent Programs when pressing Start menu
- Threaded SMS!
- When you compose an email, or SMS, and start typing the name of the contact in the "To:" field, the contact names finally pop up like Windows Mobile Professional!
- Internet Explorer now lets you define a homepage, and also zoom in and out using a nice and clean interface

as has been mentioned before, windows mobile 6.1 with the carosel thingy is smartphones, not for phones that use a stylus.

mattie's response should be in the wiki

I was going to say, you oculd do most of those things in WM5
hahaha

quick dialer from cube as a .cab?

anyone know of a cab file for the quick dial contacts screen/page of the cube. it's all use the cube for, so i'd like to just have my other favorites (main ones being on home) mapped to a button. just press and it's there, without the cube animation etc.
cheers
or failing that, which files to extract from windows etc before copying to new 'cubeless' rom, if that's possible.

Standalone Quickdial.exe from Cude
Bump...
I have the same question (1.5 years later). Is there a standalone version of the QuickDial application from the HTC Cube (without TouchFlo and without the Cube)? I would like to call it from a shortcut on the today screen so that I can dial favorite contacts safely while driving. (A VGA version would be even better.)

BTW: I know that TF3D has a similar contacts dialer, but I have TF3D disabled because...
1) I can't customize the TF3D home screen to suite my needs
2) The device lock doesn't work in TF3D with device pin protection enabled, but the regular WM6.1 "Today Screen" device lock does work.
If someone knows how to bring-up the TF3D contacts screen with TF3D disabled, then that would work for me.

WM 6.0 versus WM 6.1 What's the diff?

Besides the name 6.1 is different from 6.0, what's the feature differences?

Once again....
- Office Mobile now includes also One Note Mobile application
- Internet Explorer now has function "Zoom Out" what enables page-overview mode and better overall navigation through web pages
- Windows Mobile 6.1 still is based on Windows CE 5.2 so no upgrade to Windows CE 6.0
- SMS chat view mode is available so SMS messages can appear in threaded-way - more comfortable to follow SMS conversations
- instead of "Settings / Memory / Running Programs" now a Task Manager is available with possibility to set settings of executed threads/processes like CPU (indication of dual-core Windows Mobile devices?) and memory
- New menu item "Managed Programs"

i already knew all that stuff myself but can anyone tell me what the "Managed Programs" is for?

6.1 - parts
OK, if these parts (below) are available just as upgrade cabs?
- Internet Explorer now has function "Zoom Out" what enables page-overview mode and better overall navigation through web pages
- SMS chat view mode is available so SMS messages can appear in threaded-way - more comfortable to follow SMS conversations

wm6 is old (around 2007 & prior).
wm6.1 is 2008 and improved, faster, OEM capatible, etc...

Change SMS app pointer in T3FD

I installed SMS-Chat as a replacement SMS application for the default WM6.1 app on my Touch HD. I am looking for a way within the TouchFLO Interface to be able to lauch SMS-Chat instead of the default SMS application under the message tab, when I click to either read the a SMS message or write a new one. I installed SSMaPa - but that doesnt let me change the SMS application pointer.
Appreciate any help or pointers.
Thx.

WM6.5.3 Lockscreen dialer

1. Is there a way for the lock screen dialer to take over after dialing a number? I mean, I use the Resco Contact mgr dialer. After dialing a number through that, I get directed to the ****ty default WM6.5.3 dialer. I'm looking for a way to get directed to the lock screen call thing (which is much faster and responsive)
2. Is there a way for the Wm lock screen call thing to come up automatically whenever theres an incoming call? I found this: "http://www.xtkit.com/archives/32", but this doesn't work as efficiently, though it'll do if there's no better solution.
Thanks.

You can use Iconsoft PhonEx or HTC Phone Canvas (search) if you don't want the default dialer.
For automatic locking on an incoming call, you can use Smartlock.

Wow. That...that is an excellent dialer, PhoneEx. Wonder why I haven't heard of it before. Solves all my dialer problems. Thanks a lot

I use the default dialer and I like it alot. Granted I skinned it. But I have auto-lock on, which when used with the dialer, will switch to the lockscreen after you dial a number. The In-Call lockscreen has lots of functions like Speaker, Contacts, etc. Pretty neat.
My latest LITE rom is setup pretty slick using all standard WM apps.

@player911: Which auto lock app do you use which switches to the lockscreen after dialing? The same smartlock that Livven mentioned? I'm quite happy with PhoneEx, but it's commercial, so I'd prefer If I can setup something free.
