Hi All,
Just upgraded with the AT&T release of WM6. Everything works well though the phone has done a few quirky things like locking up on the unlock screen and once setting off the vibrate notification and never stopping.

Two questions though.
1. The Messaging app periodically checks for mail and then vibrates the phone and pops up a notification telling me I have x unread messages. I KNOW that I have unread messages and have not chosen to read them but I get a new notification every time it checks to see if there are new messages regardless of whether any new ones came in or not.
Can the notification be stopped without shutting off all notifications from other apps?

2. Every time I turn the screen off, when I turn it back on whatever app I had running has gone to the background and the phone has shifted to the today screen. Can this be stopped? I want it to be whereever I left it. I have searched but cannot find an option for that behavior.

I have to say that the Bluetooth stack works SOOO much better than did the one in WM5. And I love that Messaging now supports HTML. Profimail stopped working with html links in messages from yahoo news and it was getting annoying that I could not go to the full article if I wanted to read more.
