Why should I upgrade to 6.1??

I know there are tons of threads but they are very in depth and technical, I am curious though as to why so many people are upgrading to the rom 6.1

What will it help with? What does it "REALLY" change or fix?

Can I go back to the original rom ?

Thanks guys

Re: Why should I upgrade to 6.1??

i upgraded to WM 6.1 because of the internet explorer, the threaded sms, and the memory managent.the zoom on the explorer is a nice utility and i love the threaded sms its so useful because i am quite forgetful. and the ram may not appear to be much but it utilizes to the upmost of its ability and if u download oxios you will have no problems. its much easier on the battery and the interface looks nice too. i would recommend upgrading to no2chems rom.

Re: Why should I upgrade to 6.1??

I have alot of the WM6.1 stuff .cab-ed on WM6 but the mem-management is still worth pursuing..

Anyone else want to confirm this alleged immense battery life increase?

Re: Why should I upgrade to 6.1??

What about my current set up?

I use Ilauncher and have my desktop perfect, I don't want to change it. I also use Opera 9.33 which is awesome! Finally I have a threaded SMS program and love that as well.

I heard I would love the TV (sprint) if I upgrade, it looks like I have everything but the battery and memory ( I use memmaid anyway ) stuff.

How would this benefit ME ?

Re: Why should I upgrade to 6.1??

the integrated threaded SMS on 6.1 is better than any of the programs i have tried. I also have noticed significant battery improvements, definately worth the upgrade IMO

Re: Why should I upgrade to 6.1??

I have Sprint TV on my 6.1 WM based Touch.

As for why should you upgrade? If everything is running perfect for you then I find no reason to rock the boat.

IMHO I wouldn't worry too much about Sprint tv and their overpriced subs.
