MS probably will show it at CES, but that doesn't mean the ROM will be out shortly afterwards.

I work very closely with some people who are upper management at SPCS, not to mention several of them and i go back almost 15 years in the wireless industry.
The information was communicated to me directly by SPCS to expect the ROM update shortly after CES as the new devices/services are priority until then. Of course that could easily manifest into February. As you know since Q1 ends March 31st i think we are all really on the same timetable
As for real WM6, like you i am theorizing part of the delay may be the new OS, honestly this has not been part of our conversation though so i can neither confirm nor deny.
