If HTC wants the TP2 to have WM7 they probably would advertise it instead of advertising 6.5 upgradeable. Upgrading A OS on old phones cost money why would HTC want to spend money upgrading the OS when they can make a brand new phone for us suckers to buy and rack in $$$.

I think that I finally understand what is happening here and this type of confusion. Earlier this year (April/May) an article came out that said WM 6.5 was released to manufactures. I took that as phones were coming out shortly to us afterward, being Oct and the phones are FINALLY hitting our hands is why the 2 dates are throwing people off. The first date, lets say Feb '10 is probably to give the WM7 RTM to the carriers so they can test the phones with WM7 software and hardware, then months later actually release a true date which puts the phone in our grabby little hands in Nov/Dec...
