WM6 coming QTR 2

So, if WM6 comes out in QTR2... do you think the I760 will come out first with WM5 or will we be waiting until some time in April-May-June or later?

I mean.... come on. The device looks like it rocks... and I have to wait here for it for another who know how long? Give me a break!!! (Or a kit-Kat)

I have mine tweaked to the bone, and it runs flawlessly... but a smaller form factor would be so much better.

I origionally thought it may come out on schedule in Feb, but that does not seem the case. I know few think it would possibly come out that early.... but a guy can wish.

This could be bad news for those of us (all of us) hoping for Q1/Q2 i760 release. I find it hard to believe that the first WM6.0 product would come to TMobile, but ....

I'm still holding for 2/16 release date. For a Couple of reasons. #1, It's q1 and it still beats Q2 for TMOBILE. and #2, I will be on a Ski Trip in Aspen and won't be able to order one.

Which will link you to the first thread....

The only thing in common it has with the i730/i760 is that it's a touchscreen device, a slider, it's made by Samsung, and it's a phone. It's a not a Windows Mobile device. It can't be used in the US, it's GSM only, and it doesn't have the US GSM bands.

Am I the only one here that completely and utterly DESPISES the Landscape keyboard idea?

The main reason I even have my I730 and will take it to my grave is that it isnt landscape - potrait keyboard = one hand operation perfection. My device does everything I want it to do now and it just plain works. Other than battery life, I am completely happy with it. It works.

Being a techno geek toy junkie - I want a new device - but, I can not give up potrait keyboard. The first images I saw of the 760 had me frothing at the mouth but the images I am seeing for the Verizon version (let them figure out a way to screw up a wet dream - I know they can do it blind folded) will keep me from a new toy.

Landscape SUCKS. Who wants to juggle a damn device in their hands just to type something?

I think most mobile phone companies would be rushing as fast as they can to get new devices out before the iPhone launches in June...lets hope for the best
