According to the leaked docs, it is suppose to have WM 6.5..BUT there should be an official WM7 upgrade for the device.

I thought WM7 required a multi-touch screen.

I don't believe it's required...but WM7 is supposed to have support for capacitive and multi-touch displays.

I think hardware-wise it's ready to go for WM7. The only real requirement that the TP1 doesn't meet for WM7 is a dedicated Windows Key...which the Tp2 should have (from screens I have seen it's a hard-key on the lower left).

Now... as stated earlier in this thread by the Sprint corp. retail manager, the Touch Pro 2 is nowhere in sight for US cdma carriers. T-Mobile of all carriers will be the first US carrier to release the Touch Pro 2. It will be a LOOONG wait before it hits Sprint or Verizon so feel free to use your upgrade eligibility on a different phone or just save it till your hair turns gray and by then the Touch Pro 2 will be obsolete. Don't ask me how I know this... but in reality, by the time the Touch Pro 2 is released on a US cdma carrier it will be considered an old phone and behind the competition. Trust me on this, 2nd to 3rd quarter 2010 at the EARLIEST people. Let this TP2 thread rest in peace!
