Two links to sites about HTC official road maps plans for WM6 for HTC phones.

I am not sure though if these are t-mobiles roms for t-mobile bought dashes. I dont know much about roms so please some one elaborate.

This makes sense since in the original press release Microsoft said T-Mobile will be the first operator to release WM6. This just means that the effective licensing dates are different, even if the phones with WM6 are made and shipped they can't be sold until the street date set by Microsoft.

The article says that HTC devices will be getting WM6 in APRIL not June. Or am I missing something?

HTC might be starting in June, but T-Mobile is starting sooner for the Dash...?

If you look at the pdf official announcement:

You'll notice that in the body of the announcement it says:

"The upgrades will be rolled out from June, in line with our operator partners’ strategies."


BUT you'll also see that in the Additional Q's section it says:

"When will the upgrade be available?

The upgrades will be rolled out from April."


Which one is right??

I spoke with an engineer at T-Mobile, and the official release is tentatively set for the week of May 4th. This is just for the ROM upgrade, not for the Dash preloaded with WM6.
