If you like Opera, I'd try the new IE first. If you include the gadgets, you also probably won't need a weather program as I felt the built in gadget was fairly nice, as was the stock gadget. I also think that programs are closed by default when hitting the "X", though I could be wrong there as it's been a month or 2 since I last used it. I'd say that if you want a daily use phone, then stick with 21042 of WM6.1. 21501 uses to much memory and becomes unstable after a day or two as well. It works well enough, but if you're constantly using your phone, you may want to stay away, or just use it for a day or two to see what it's like and then go back.
I've used WkTASK for a while & seems to work in 6.5. It gives you the option of setting applications to minimize or close upon clicking the X.

Also, I can't seem to locate the weather and stock gadgets even though I've selected "Windows 6.5 Widgets" in the kitchen.
