I doubt it's a trivial thing to create a kitchen from a brand new ROM. I'm sure there will be lots of testing required for the encoding tools and all the OEMs, etc. Personally, I'd rather they get some of the quirks ironed out (like secured wifi or threaded sms

) before releasing it anyway. That way, we don't have to have 6 or 7 different revs of kitchen.

I was going to say the exact same thing. I can wait for the kitchen as long as some of the major show-stoppers were fixed such as wpa wifi (the biggest one for me).

Palm Threaded SMS will be nice also, but the biggest hindrance of my acceptance of WM6 is the fact that I can't connect to the wpa-tkip network at my house.

Plus, with the information in this thread: http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/showthread.php?t=1904 can't you already make your own custom rom/kitchen if you were so inclined? I'd rather see the bugs ironed out.

sort of. It's a full ROM, so choosing what to pull out to make room isn't necessarily straight forward. Particularly if you want to clean the registry at the same time (which you should if you're pulling anything significant out). It's a lot easier to just wait for the kitchen.

its funny that ppl are talking about wpa-tkip not working with the wm6 rom, because it works just fine for me... i have the belkin pre n router.. maybe it has something to do with the router u have... i mean let me just say before i continue, i absolutly have no idea what im talking about but... maybe this wm6 rom is missing certin "router drivers" so to speak... and thats why it's working fine for me and not some others... because I'm defitnally useing the wpa2-tkip settings as a matter of fact... but again I don't really know why its working for me and others are finding that its not..

The worst thing we can do is to start bugging the guys that are making the kitchen.
If there is an entire thread dedicated to the question of "When", all the people that want to ask, will just come here, and they won't keep pestering the people making the kitchen.

All the kitchen makers have to do is avoid this thread, and they won't be bothered by it.
And, hopefully one of them will chime in one day and tell us it's ready or in beta testing or "In Your Dreams".

I'm betting it's "in your dreams". (It's in mine!)

Just throwing my $0.02 out there, "good things come to those that wait."

I can't wait for a kitchen, but hey by all means take your time if it means that the bugs will be ironed out.

Oh yeah and thanks again to the savvy folks who're cranking this out

Keep in mind they're trying to work out the bugs that are currently present in the WM6 rom. Call it "experimental" if you will, they wanted to get feedback so they could iron them out and have a beautifully working kitchen for everyone.
