Let's see here. First off, there's no such thing as threaded MMS. There's threaded SMS, which is what 6.1 has built-in standard, and is not "hacked." It's the real-deal. Then there's the new MMS (how would you go about threading pictures and videos?) which is what they're working on with Sprint to figure out.

Already clearly known is that 6.1 for smartphones looks completely different from 6.1 Professional. Welcome to January.

And storage and RAM are NOT the same thing, no matter how much you would like to think they are. The phone's storage is ROM, not RAM, and they cannot be swapped or adjusted. The ROM is WAY too slow to be used as RAM, and they're not interchangeable technologies. This isn't like the early days of WinCE/Pocket PC 2002/2003 where there was no ROM and RAM was used as both storage and system memory so you could allocate what you wanted to either. These days they're separated so there's no risk of losing all your data when the battery dies.

Seriously, if you're going to act like you know what you're talking about, actually know what you're talking about first.

Well put TurboFool, well put...

I think some are confusing threaded MMS with SMS. Sprint doesn't even have MMS for the Mogul.

So June 2nd?
Why would they update the radio version as well as the rom build?
I though the last official release unlocked all the potential of the msm7500 chipset (minus hardware video acceleration of course) but gps and rev a are enabled. No one has reported any differences between the old stock radio and the test radio.

Thoughts?

Late June? Sometimes I wish people would release their "source" of dates.

Easy tiger. I was just curious. I feel like an investigator trying to get someone to rat someone out. Just trying to decide whether to get hyped for the update or not.

Why, be excited about a stock ROM anyway? There's really nothing new that we haven't seen already.

We already got GPS and Rev A., 6.1 etc.. What's all the hype about?

Somebody, needs to find out when the Diamond and/or Raphael are coming out. That'll excite me.

Well, when are you going to check with your source? It has been a week. Curious minds need to know!!!

I have been waiting at least a week to do a hard reset on ym phone, I wanted to wait until this new ROM comes out, but I don't know if I can wait much longer.

I have heard the 15th (which is a Sunday, so maybe the 16th?) and the 21st. I am looking to the 16th for now.
