I wouldn't say Windows Mobile 6.5 will be "7 released as 6.5."
Windows Mobile 6.5 will likely be a more significant improvement to 6 than 6.1, but not as sweeping as 7.
I would expect IE Mobile 6, SideShow, and perhaps a tweaked, DirecDraw-accelerated interface. Perhaps Zune released as an add-on post-launch to retrofit/replace Windows Media Player.
And, I also expect Microsoft to not work as hard to assure 6.1 devices will be updated. Microsoft needs to sell new OEM licenses as Apple is now beating them in sales.
