It seemed a bit more finger friendly but with the TP2, that's not such a big deal anymore, and while I think the Internet Explorer was much better, in reality, explorer has sucked so bad in years past, I rarely even see it anymore anyway. Maybe I missed some other real benefits, but I like the Mobile Shell 3 right now with no customROMS out, and hate the idea of having to redo it all for a "minor " upgrade to 6.5
That's the part that irks me the most about the whole "Oct 6 is Launch Date"/"We don't know when the carrier ROMs will hit" thing. Not knowing if Telus plans an Oct 11 2009 release or August 16, 2010 release for the 6.5 ROM means I'm in limbo here. Quite annoying to spend a bunch of time setting the phone up just right ... the day before that ROM drops.

At this point, I wish the carriers would say SOMETHING (other than Sprint). They were all so quick to point out these phones would get upgrades to 6.5 when we were in the stores, weren't they!
