i like it as of now. its new, the animated weather is sweet & idk if its coincidence but ive never experienced battery life like this. some things take getting used to & while the start menu isnt like 6.1 with time ill be ok. a few things r choppy & laggy but its not that serious as of yet. after a little more customization ill see how i feel .. lack of task manager is killing me but once i get a few minutes at a desktop 2 search around im sure ill find help along with some cabs 2 tweak it more.

Whoever decided either at Sprint or HTC to remove that for the 6.5 needs to be fired or at least have a talking to.

i'm having problems with 2.5 (custom roms, and official), and i don't like opera 9.7... flashing back to 2.1 when i get home.

My thoughts are the same as in every WM update.. there is always the need to tweak a few things.. i upgradef for the simple fact of the new radio version..

Try that to get your old task manager back in the upper right hand corner. Works like a charm.

Install the task manager back man. Thats all I did as far as tweak goes. 6.5 is more animated and more colorful.
