Hi guys,

Thanks in advance for your help!

I've got a few quick questions here: I notice some Hermes devices are shipped with WM5 and some with WM6. (please answer as many or as few questions as you can every little titbit of info greatly recieved!)

1. Mine came with WM5. Are there any advantages to upgrading to WM6?

2. I like the cooler 3D startmenu that I've seen on some other people's devices - I'm assuming this is a WM6 feature? Is it possible to get this without upgrading?

3. I'm worried about losing my programmes when doing any rom upgrades from here (been looking at a few of the cooked ones) will my registry remain in tact? If not is it possible to back up the registry and restore it?

4. I tried to perform a backup (been meaning to do it for ages) with activesync...........and discovered the function doesn't exist on the new version??? (I could do it with my blueangel!). Can I still do this?

5. What is SuperCID? I've seen it mentioned a few places? Does it tell you the location of incoming calls?

6. Lastly (and I appreciate this is a bit off-topic) does anyone know any good skinning software for PPC? Something like WiseBar but preferibly free ;-) and with good memory usage

Thanks for taking the time to read this!

I have been reading all of this stuff in search of these answers for quite some time now. Suffice it to say that dyslexia and encroaching anatomy exams (the life of a medic is full of these things) it's difficult to find time to read all of that ;-)

Any help anyone can give on any one of these points would be greatly recieved and I appologise and sympathise greatly with the attitude which creates the 'do a search' mentality so pervasive on the forums - the same things do come up all the time. ;)

Thanks again for your help folks!
