As we all "patiently WAIT" for either the carriers - Verizon in my case - or the kitchen guys ... what is all of the fuss about? I personally like a number of the new 6.5 features for my TP2 and can hardly wait!
Of course, I just watched a video and it's really HTC and each carrier that will decide what we see and don't see out of the carrier ROMs.
What do we "wish" to see on 6.5?
