6.6 will be to 6.5.5 what 6.5.5 was to 6.5, that is, not a major retooling but just bringing stuff up to spec with the general UX paradigm (touch/capacative friendly)

Remember that 6.6 is intended for a parallel release with WP7 so we're still a ways off from it. It will likely just 'creep into being' like the 6.5.x series did.

Also, from what I recall, 6.5.5 already has multitouch capability built in. (I would need to check the references to be sure, but off the top of my head im pretty sure)

From what I've played with on the HD Mini, it does have multitouch. It's in the browser (and it's not HTCs messing around), though I've yet to find any method for interacting with the multitouch framework...

Do you know if 6.6 is still based on CE5 or is it that rumoured OS that takes the step up to CE6?
