I'm quite happy with it. I haven't had any of the more serious problems that others have reported. It seems just as fast as most of the 3.5 rom's I was running, and overall it just feels like a more modern interface. WM5 always felt a bit too much like Windows 95 to me. I really like the HTC today screen, and the fact that a number of other minor things 'just work' for me in this rom, with minimal tweaking needed.

I have been using WM6 since it came out as well. However, I am thinking of switching back to WM5 due to the bluetooth drop off thing. It just stops working several times a day! Even during a call, the bluetooth just cuts off and I think I dropped the call, then I hear the other party talking from my hip!

It's a real deal breaker for me! Just looking for the best ROM to install now...

I'm hoping for a newer faster version of WM6 for the 6700. I like it overall but I'm back to wm5

I love the WM6 very much!
But the WM6 has some BUGS ,who can make out the WM6 pure ROM to share?

I switched to WM6 as soon as it came out, but it was too bloated for me, I went back to WM5 with Helmi's kitchen until a few days ago I switched to the WM6 no junk. I've installed what I want on it and it's been performing great for me.

Updated to WM6 using robmayers clean ver 3 for Sprint. So far so good. Much better than 5 was, even the cusom roms. BT used to dump relentlessly. Going on 24hr without losing BT.
I also just upgraded the radio to ver 1.41 (phoenx06) and that's running real sweet as well.

I have used it since the start and it works well for me. Applied the "service pack" and that solved many concerns.

It is great!

I love WM6, but it is draining my battery like crazy! I have removed HTC Home, and set emails to check the server every 30 min to try to help, but it still goes down fast. I'm really thinking about going back to WM5, but I love the HTML email! Anyone else having battery issues?

I've also had battery issues with WM6, but off and on. Some days my battery only lasts a few hours. Some days I get to the end of the day and still have a 60% charge. I haven't yet figured out what is different between the days. I always have Wi-fi and Bluetooth off.
