WM2005 O2 Upgrades?

[flintanis]

Now Microsoft has officially released WM2005

does anyone know if O2 are going to release an upgrade for the XDA range, more specifically the XDAII in my case?

I have written to O2 but I am still awaiting a reply. A response I got when enquiring about a Bluetooth fix for handsfree, was that there was not going to be any upgrades, but I don't know of that was just a fob off.

If there isn't going to be an upgrade, does anyone know if there will be a stable "official" English unofficial version created by you techies on this forum for us none techies?

Thanks

As much as i know O2, i would say there will never be an release of WM2005 for the XDA II.

For the XDA I there has never been an really official WM2003 release until now, and i think, for the XDA II there isn´t a official WM2003SE VErsion out, or am i wrong?

Sounds hard, but i would say customer support from O2 is more than bullshit....

What would you prefer?
- Upgrade to current device, with more than 50% of features missing?
- New device with everything working.

QED: WM2003SE Bluetooth has handsfree profile. It doesn't work on my butchered Xda II - because the hardware can't do it.

QED: Persistent Store on Magneto, surely the best feature, won't work on Xda II because it needs new hardware. Instead, the beta floating around hacked with the RAM and dropped usable RAM to 25MB.

Pile of pants really.

Most effort will go into new devices, and I bet Orange Vodafone and T-Mobile won't offer an upgrade either!!
