So is WM 6.1 worth the upgrade?

Also, any ideas when an official release for at&t will surface for the tilt?

There is a comparison of wm6 and wm6.1 on microsoft's windows mobile site. And unless I am missing something, about the only thing notable seems to be threaded SMS in 6.1. All other differences mentioned frankly dont seem worth going through the bother UNLESS ofcourse 6.1 is faster, uses less memory, does a better job of garbage collection or other such non-functional improvements which are not mentioned.

I agree! Unless I'm seeing reports of vast improvements in speed, and a couple of other nagging nits, I won't do the upgrade. It does what I want it to already.

A lot of the cooked 6.1 ROMs available now take advantage of some new drivers (NOT Video) and other optimizations which do make it quite a bit faster than any WM6 ROM I have used.

Any ROM on tops?

I'm running Dutty's Apr 09 build, and it is the fastest ROM I have used to date. A close second would be NoThrills WWE from 1 month ago.

The NoThrills WWE called my attetion. I look a ROM with no big changes. Am I right?

You need to update buddy. 6.1 offers .NET 3.5, threaded, SMS, and best of all stability! No reason why you shouldnt upgrade. NO DOWN SIDE!

I would go with April 16th from Dutty, its a real winner....

If you want a clean, fast ROM, go with NoThrills.

I got the No Thrills. I works like my old 6.0 but faster and smooth. Thanks for the tip.
