Windows Mobile 6 Upgrade for the T-Mobile Dash available NOW!

  • Article

You have been waiting for this moment - the first Windows Mobile 6 phone in the US is available now https://www.t-mobile.com/wmupgrade . Sorry, this will only work with T-Mobile Dashes (not with unlocked HTC units).

I have been using this build for the last few weeks and it works incredibly well. Some of my favorite features include:

  • Search your email as you type and the ability to search your server
  • HTML email - both for Exchange as well as Hotmail and others
  • Mobile Office - true Excel, Powerpoint and Word on SMartphone - sorry Standard edition
  • Ability to reply to meeting orgazniers "sorry, I am running 5 minutes late"
  • Live Local search built in
  • Setting my Out of the Office autoreply from my phone
  • IE is much improved

    When T-Mobile Dash is upgraded the voice dialing capability is disabled. T-Mobile is uncooperatice in resolving the problem. Microsoft is also un-helpfull at resolving the problem unless you pay them $35. Even though both T-Mobile and Microsoft are aware of this problem neather off this information to the end user before the upgrade is done. T-Mobile offers no way to restor the Dash to pre-upgrade version (Windows Mobile 5) of Windows Mobile.

    Even if you pay the $35 to Microsoft, they are completely baffled why one would consider it a problem.  Apparently, voice dial can be done, but not using your hands-free - you must talk directly into the phone!  (stupid)  And no, once you upgrade, you can't downgrade; you're stuck.  Stupid upgrade.
