I hit my first problem with WM6 today ... I was using the standard battery because it was the weekend and I don't use the pda much on weekends ... or so I thought .. after reading an ebook while listening to xm radio for about an hour at breakfast ... I shut everything down (I thought) ... and went to a bowling tournament ... instead of shutting down bluetooth I accidently turned on wifi ... as you could imagine ... I drained the battery to zip over two hours of trying to connect to my home system (10miles away) ... I figured no biggie ... plugged in the car charger and rebooted .. all of my programs where fine ... but lots of the settings ... IE ring tone ... speed dials ... soft key assignments to name a few where back to default ... this was strange to me ... soooooo ... I charged the battery for awhile and redid all the settings ... then took the battery out for about 20 minutes ... poof ... all the same settings where back to defaults .... this never happened on wm5 ... I switch back and forth from i730, treos, 6700, 6600 regularly (gives me a sense of a new unit ... holds me over till vzw comes out with a new toy ... do I have the gadget thing bad or what ... but alas I digres) When I switch back and forth I leave the batteries out ... the only one I need to mess with after rebooting is the 6600 WM2003se ... and now the 6700 with wm6 ... I did test the spb back up and it worked flawlessly ... even restoring the settings that where lost ... so that's at least good ... I really don't understand why this happens .. but it did ... and it might be a pain if your battery goes dead ... and yes I did get the warnings but the phone was in my bowling bag and I didn't get them till I booted it on the car charger .. so you might want to make sure you don't run the battery into the ground ... this doesn't happen just changing the battery ... which doesn't make any sense to me at all ????

Edit: sorry .. I thought I was in the wm6 thread ... been a long day
