When is the HTC Release Date Windows Mobile 6.5?? - Touch Diamond2, Pure Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So the HTC Touch Diamond 2 is upgradable to Windows 6.5. Anyone know when this is due to be released by HTC?
I have searched and cant find a definitive answer. Sorry for this 'noob' question!
Cheers!
{edited the title to not confuse people with thinking this was an announcement rather than a question}

Don't have any sources and this is only speculation from other people but rumors are september.

Ok, thanks for the reply

It was released to manufacturing somewhere around 18th May so I expected HTC have a copy in their grubby little hands

General availability for Windows Mobile 6.5 handsets is September/October - I've already flashed my Topaz using HardSPL, and am running 6.5 right now

I've done the same. I'm using TOM Topaz v1.0 WWE (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=526966) since a few minutes, so far so good

Just flashed to this ROM (after first flashing HardSPL of course). All's well...

don't you lose your warranty when you use a rom or am I going crazy?
btw my phone isn't through any phone company, I bought the phone outright and kept on using my current plan.

WM6 is coming

http://www.pocketpc-live.com/home/2.html
and demo by Microsoft with Wizard http://www.betanews.com/slideshow.php/Windows_Mobile_6/148/7
We know it's coming. Any Joe who browses this site knows it's coming. Do you have to keep on posting about it? You have already posted in other threads already.
If your intention is to legalize the posting of cooked WM6 ROM in this forum, it won't work. Betanews displayed of some screen shots didn't mean anything. He could have gotten the pre-release Orwell ROM just like every Joe here.
Unless you can get an official announcement from HTC or MS that WM6 CB will be released for the Wizard there is nothing new.

Why do you think its stale. Microsoft just did the demo 2 days ago....
I think he means what is currently on the frontpage is stale.
Did anyone view the WM6 Introduction Presentation Video? They presented the WM6 on a smartphone. By the way Softbank is coming up with a Toshiba Protege PPC. The keyboard, general look etc looks like HTC's. hmmm... Wonder if it produced by HTC for Toshiba.

TyTN II VGA / chipset drivers to be released this month

http://msmobiles.com/news.php/7334.html
We know it from good source that this month, possibly already next week, HTC will release ROM update for HTC TyTN II that will ship with improved graphics drivers and will offer improved performance.

Hopefully this is what we've all been waiting for, but I'm sitting on the fence. If it is the correct drivers I have faith in the community that they can reverse engineer it to work with not just the unbranded HTC but all variants.
We'll have to wait and see!

The European style of writing dates is to put the day of the month first, then the month, then the year (dd/mm/yyyy). Backwards from us Americans with our mm/dd/yyyy, but more logical. So those aren't dates in the future, they're all dates in may that are a few days past.

No he got it right, that's how long we've been waiting for these drivers and that is how long the rumors that the drivers were coming have been

Sorry, my bad! I normally use that as a synonm for 'graphics', obviously falsely!
Sorry about not noticing the other threads either, XDA Dev moves pretty quickly and I saw this news, did a quick search, didn't see anything mentioned on it so thought I'd open a thread to discuss this
Also from HTC Class Action more recent news:
Q (All About Phones): What about the driver/rom-update for the TyTN II and other pda's by HTC ?
A (Mark Moons, HTC): I can confirm we will release a ROM-update for the TyTN II this month which will solve and improve most issues. This will also be a 6.1 update so the TyTN II will be completely up to date. I cannot confirm this for other devices.

got my tilt today

Well it's here and I've been working on it since noon (it's 1:57 AM now) 12 hours is way too long to mess with a phone LOL.
Any way, here's the factory specs:
Bootloader: SPL1.98.0000
Radio: 1.27.14.09
ROM version: 1.62.502.0
ROM date: 01/07/08
protocol: 22.45.88.07H
So far I've Security unlocked it, Super CID'd it, and HardSPL it (olipof1.1), and added my personal software so it looks kinda like my old 8525.
Still seem to be having some problems with the GPS but, with a little more reading and fiddling around I'll get it working.
Next up, HardSPL 30.28/9, and prolly duttys newest 6.1 ROM.
Oh has any one ripped the individule pieces form the AT&T ROM, there are a few I would like to keep using and havn't been able to find them?
STEVE
They should have a rule that you can not post any questions until someone has their phone for 45 days.

I've been using a 8525 for over a year and 5 or 6 different Palms prior to that.

It took him 20 minutes from his original post until he found the answer himself. The noobie spoonfeeding never ends.

Verizon HTC Diamond Windows Mobile 6.5

So, since there isn't an unlocker, is this impossible?
There is an unlocker. I do have a Sprint version, but I dont think that would matter as far as unlocking goes.
So it is possible? I feel bad coming here and going HEY GUYS IDK WHAT TO DO but thats basically my situation! I just want to get 6.5 on my Diamond because 6.1 is annoying the crap out of me and any improvement would be nice! It's just hard because I can't find any info on doing this on a Verizon version. Do you know where I can find the unlocker, or what to plug into google? Thanks, I appreciate the information.

Thanks for the LMGTFY but I already checked that out and "This DOES NOT work on Verizon Diamonds as they are a completely different phone." It doesn't look like it's possible for a Verizon Diamond...
