Release is slated for this month...atleast from Microsoft's website for the Touch Pro 2...so hopefully it will happen. It's a 50/50 on weather you can do it OTA....if not Sprint will have a listing on there website as will HTC for our Touch Pro 2's...Just keep checking the sites and someday (Soon I hope) it will be there.

I had a vendor call in who works with HTC and recently sold like 500 TP2's and said that from people he talked with it would be January 10. I asked him if that was from MS and he said that was for Sprint.
Officially in Tech we have heard no time.... so we will find out in a little more than a week if he was right.

I'd say 0/100 chance on OTA. I've never seen an OTA ROM upgrade on WM. It'll be a download.

Yeah. All updates of this type will be available most likely at http://sprint.com/downloads

No way it is going to be OTA.

Yeah I figured it will be downloadable. Depending on the size of the ROM upgrade, probably around 100MB that would take forever on a data network such as Sprints or Verizon's. Thank god for Wi-fi on this device..or your home PC at that. OTA worked on my Blackberry when I had it...but it was slow and painful to watch downloading.

We know u CAN.. i do it with mine. but Sprint is most likely not going to do it via OTA.
