hmm.. the reading continues...

21014 is newer than 21109

wrong. build numbers don't mean much.

I don't understand why Microsoft cares so much.. unless they're going to make everyone pay for wm7 upgrade on their phones? Aren't updates usually provided free through the carriers anyways? Who the hell cares? They should be helping the community make this phone architecture more popular and worthwhile... instead, they're really hurting themselves....

unless they have some "bigger" plan... most-likely related to money somehow

They are trying... Let's wait a few more weeks to judge the success/failure of 6.5

Agreed! I know you're waiting to dissect it/ test it, if you haven't gotten a hold of it yet.

Can't wait to see what a month or 2 brings us. If not sooner!

Not sure. I didn't see anything spectacular in 21014, but MS requested it be removed, and the site admins and I complied 100%

Ok. GENERALLY, a build number consists of at least a major, and most of the time consists of a minor and a revision as well, and this number is not manually picked by the developer(s).

If I go into C++ right now and code a program, build it 150 times, then come back to make revisions and they work on build 151, build 151 is the newer build. I don't understand how you guys can say build numbers don't mean much... Sure, it doesn't mean it's BETTER, but it is NEWER.

i believe whats others have been trying to explain is that the build number is not much more than a means to index and categorize the said build.Can't we all just agree that Juicy 4.7, besides being lite stable and extremely versatile,is/was the best thing to land on a window mobile platform in a long long time. A rose by any other name.
