I'm just excited that it's official. And in case it seems like it could be an April Fools joke, the Microsoft press center has the same news release listing the Q9C: http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2008/apr08/04-01WM61PR.mspx After a few months of uncertainty, this is great news. :laugh2:
Microsoft also has a video up detailing some of the new features... http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/6-1/default.mspx
Yeah, I had the same confusion, but then found this article: http://www.microsoft.com/presspass/press/2008/apr08/04-01EnterpriseMobilePR.mspx Which says WinMo 6.1 devices are coming out in 2Q, so the update would likely be around then, I would expect. The other nice thing is the original press article also mentions Motorola as a device supporter, though it seems like Q9C users would have to get the update from Sprint, right? At the very least it may mean that Moto could test it and give Sprint the thumbs up.
I'm sure moto has tested it and is waiting for sprint to finish "laming it up" c- n99hokey hope it works out like you guys(gals) dream of -posted from my Q1-
I've spotted Sprint's official date for upgrades....Summer 2008, for all existing Windows Mobile 6 phones: http://newsreleases.sprint.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=127149&p=irol-newsArticle_newsroom&ID=1124415
I was just going to post that WM 6.1 info for the Q9c had been posted on Engadget (http://www.engadget.com/2008/04/01/microsoft-announces-windows-mobile-6-1-device-upgrades/) but Sprint's official announcement makes it even better! Or worse, it could be an April Fool's day joke!!!
you never know but i bet your email pushed it over the edge to go forward with releasing it:wink::tounge:
I was just being a 'little' sarcastic to you, since you haven't tended to add anything useful to this thread. This comes out a little harsher than I intend, but I don't understand thread crapping; especially from a MOD
lol... let me see if I can do that <insert mo******sm here> Crap. It bleeped me out. You guys really ARE above us
