Why Windows Mobile 6.5 over 6.1?

I have a Sprint Touch Pro. I love it. I would admit that I am addicted to flashing. Have tried a lot of ROMs so far. I see that in a lot of new threads people say that
- I love WM6.5.
- Once I've used WM6.5, I can't even imagine going back to 6.1.
- There is a whole world of difference between WM 6.5 and WM6.1

From my experience (I always use TF3D), the things that I find different between the 2 OSs:
- In WM 6.5 scrolling and the scroll bars are awesome.
- In WM 6.5 the start menu is different (which I am not a big fan of)

Besides that, everything seems the same to me (as I use TF3D and not use Titanium). Am I missing something? Is there some really drastic change between the 2 OSs? What makes everyone like WM6.5 SO MUCH MORE than WM6.1? What is so good about it? Please enlighten me so that I can feel the glory of WM6.5...

Thanks in advance.

Re: Why Windows Mobile 6.5 over 6.1?

i'm using 6.5 (mighty rom 5) and i prefer 6.1. i love how fast the rom is, but i don't like 6.5 all that much. one of the most annoying things is the fact that the menus in 6.5 are larger, so you have to scroll up and down to see all the menu options.

they're bigger because 6.5 is finger friendly.




The question is not why wm6.5 over 6.1,
the question is why 6.1 over 6.5.
as 6.5 > 6.1
