I'm still holding out hope that htc will eventually launch a 4.3 inch slider :).

Know what would be really cool, Most WP7 phones run at 1ghz+, most 6.5 based phones (Tp2, etc) run around 400-528mhz. Someone needs to make a 6.5 emulator, running at around TP2 speeds (not as fast as a HD2 but, reasonable), with access to games, phone, internet.

That would rock, then everyone with a WP7 phone could have 6.5 if they wanted...

Yeah that would be pretty awesome, but I think the hardware would have to be more robust in order to emulate a "528mhz" device. Regardless, an emulator would be such a fantastic tool for someone like myself who insists on having the best tidbits of each OS in one.

I would go nuts for an HD2-like device on Sprint solely because of the 3 OS solution. Hell, I'd even give up the hardware keyboard to which I'm so attached!

It might be possable if they can make it like they make Android on the TP2, by closing WM and opening Android, I'm sure it's possable.

I would not expect the emulated system run top speed games but, there is a lot of apps that run on WM that you might never see on WP7...but, if you could "close" WP7 and start 6.5, that would be cool...but, it would be different for every phone.

The emulator was thought to be the easyest way to run on all WP7 phones that are unlocked... if possable of course

I may be mistaken but I thought that I saw on XDA that there was a version of 6.5, in the works, that would boot from the SD card.

I just don't understand why you would want to go back to 6.5, WP7 is just so beautiful.

I had 6.5 on my TP2 and I've been doing this for a while, was a great OS but compared to WP7, no contest.

it was rumored Cotulla was working on it, but that was months ago and we haven't even seen a hint of this.

I would love this because then I could run WP7 from NAND, and Android and WM6.5.x on SD and have a true tri-boot.
