Case in point the Imagio is out with 6.5, it probably didn't have its release process interrupted at all. It's speculation but as I said it kinda makes sense:

I wish sprint had the Imagio or honestly at this point they could of kept the damn TP2 and just released it with 6.5. I'm starting to feel like out of all the carriers only AT&T got it right. Not only do they have the TD2 and the TP2, they both released with 6.5

Dude, im glad they didnt wait for 6.5 to push out our tp2s..... Awesome phone with 6.1 already instead of wait 2 months and still counting for 6.5 to be released when weve had leaked versions6.5 for months now?

id rather take this phone stock 6.1 than wait till 6.5 was released before i got it, id still be on that crapy tp1...

Agreed, lets all just relax a bit for WM 6.5. I'm dying to have it, but unfortunately most carriers didn't have a date set to release it for our devices

Oh well, I'm used to them dropping the ball. As long as they release it SOON though, I will refrain from gouging out my eyes due to the lack of a MightyROM

Why is everyone so suprised and angry that the 6.5 upgrades aren't available today? They are coming, it's been verified. I would much rather be enjoying my TP2 with 6.1 for the last 3 weeks than waiting for the phone because they wanted to release it with 6.5. It's coming people...

I think everyone is upset due to the way MS worded it. "WinMo will be available 10-11"....but they didnt say "only on new phones released that day"

Yeah I can wait, but it would have been nice to wake up today to a new Sprint webpage with an official 6.5 rom there.

That may be so, but it is ultimately the job of the Carrier to roll out the update for the device. It takes plenty of time and resources to develop/package/test/release an update for these phones, and the carriers most likely procrastinated.

Think of how paranoid the carriers are when people are sending back phones for the slightest thing, there's probably a lot of QA going on.

Is 6.5 really all that? I'm just getting my phone nice and comfy, do I want to flash for something that really isn't that different?

i agree, its a good thing they didn't wait till 6.5, then we would've been stuck with a 6.5 stock rom forever. At least we finally got a tp2 in cmonex's hands.
