yay!

thank you for the news paul! I'll flash this on my girlfriend's phone and hope nothing goes wrong! I hope it comes with a comm manager where you can actually change from 3G to edge this time!

I just got the Duo (my trusty old AT&T 2125 just didn't cut it anymore)
The first thing I did - after activating it - was upgrade to WM6.1
Worked like a charm!
The only thing that didn't work was the PIM.VOL file, and I found a converter for it, which also worked like a charm.

I really like the threaded SMS. Beyond that, I really don't know what the DUO was like with WM6.0

I flashed it on her phone and the homescreen interface is awesome, very similar to the Manilia 2D interface I have on my phone, that is, without the touch capabilities. But instead of moving the tabs left and right, it's up and down, each tab has different settings that you can navigate through using left and right.

It still has the same crappy comm manager, and I still can't figure out how to disable 3G on her phone, is it really that complicated on a smartphone? is it even possible? or is it something very simple I'm just not seeing?
