Should I be upset that mUn's WM6 aRTM was up for 5$ on ebay, and he wasn't the one selling it?

Sorry you got pinched.
Well now more of us can keep an eye out.
ya know what- I'm not sorry a bit: I would probably wouldn't have come to this forum had I not been burned. And, I'm in the process of really going elbow-deep in my 8125 and LOVING it! So, I just feel it's crap that someone else is taking the $$$ for someone else's creation.

I just went to Ebay and typed in "Windows Mobile 6" into their Search Engine. Just look at what came up!!! And, they originated from THIS forum, I'm sure. . .
http://search.ebay.com/Windows-Mobile-6_W0QQfromZR40
I've got a good mind to report ALL of them to Ebay . . . and surprised that Microsoft hasn't . . . yet.
ought to just report to eBay.
Conversely buyable is this
For those of us that love our PDAs and PDA phones I created the themes that I am selling on eBay to anyone who loves the gear and beautiful women - and NO they are not nudes and porn. But, for anyone that likes what they see and wants some I will give 6 for the price of 3.
Take a look:

I have used WM6 ROMs and I'm grateful for the cooks providing them, but let's call a spade a spade here - it's NOT "freeware". Microsoft make WM available to ODMs for a licence fee.

I must admit I did not know ODMs were not being charged for WM5->WM6 upgrade paths, however a free upgrade is not freeware.

I did. Two of the listings were pulled within 1/2 hour and I've notice that a third one has now been pulled. The only items left are the Wizard phones with WM6 pre-installed. Those probably won't last much longer.

Selling themes you created is fine since you're the author but selliing something somebody else has put together and released for free is wrong to say the least....

Well i have reported both of them, due to the fact that if someone on here has put alot of work into it, NO-ONE should be selling it on, that will just bring more problems from microsoft to this site! As we are one of the biggest sites, if not the best for the wizard.
If it is given for free, no-one can be seen to be getting money from copy right of microsoft!

So, with all the pre-orders and people finding that it's going to be hard to get one any time soon, when will stock be available? To me, this just sounds like a ploy to build up a buzz about "who can get the N6 first" and then release it in normal numbers after the hype has been promoted.
So, if I come back in a month or two, will normal stock numbers make the device easier to get?
Benefits of waiting:
* By waiting, any issues with hardware/software will be brought out by the numerous early adopters.
* By waiting, if there are updates to the software or hardware that need to be released, they will be by the time late-market adopters get in on the action
* By waiting, more accessories may be introduced into the market as some accessory makers wait to see what the reception of a device is into the market before releasing accessories
* By waiting, more stock and therefore, better pricing may occur (although this one is a stretch even on a good day)
Cons of waiting:
* You don't get the device before anyone else (not really a big deal if you've got a perfectly good working device, after all for a lot of us, smartphones are a luxury not a necessity, YMMV)
* You don't get the latest and greatest tech immediately (see previous point)
I just see more benefits to waiting than in running out and getting this just because it's "new"
Of course, this is my opinion, yours may be different.

Yeah I'm using the Canadian Pushbullet (so far no updates, lol). But I've been following the USA PushBullet, just for fun, and it seems like from last week, the "Out Of Stock" notification comes MERE seconds after the In Stock notification, lol, I really will need to be really fast. Specially if this is a worldwide pre-order. I would hate to have to wait an extra week to place an order

Actually it is important. A lot of people here believed the 6 was too big. A lot of people believed that the 5 was perfect. A lot of people had discussed the possibility that Google would keep the 5 and the 6 and upgrade the hardware of each device yearly or so. If google has indeed stopped production of the 5 that could mean they are gearing up for a new 5. Or they are killing the device to be replaced by something else entirely. Notice how I used the term "a lot" quite often? So while your entitled to your opinion it doesn't mean the rest of us aren't interested in what this could mean. Since you've already decided to report this thread Id be interested to see that the Mods take on it is.

My warranty card says it's 2 years.
Given the pace of change it's not surprising that the nexus 5 is reaching end of life. In terms of market reach the model had reached saturation. Those who want it have it already. Phones sell because they are an upgrade,to profit companies must keep moving. What does it mean for existing nexus 5 owners. Not much. We are likely to see incremental software updates for the next couple of years. We may or not get big future updates but nexus devices tend to be supported longer. A lot of Nexus 5s have been sold, we have a strong development community that will continue for the next couple of years. All this is normal, expected. Over the next few years the majority of the community will buy new phones, many in less than 12 months. Not a shock.
The N5 will still be available through other sellers like ebay, amazon, etc..... for a good long while. You can still buy any nexus phone from the past brand new.
Sorry people this is not new information.

Hi Guys. I am Shellshock. The Numbers are there because some dude wrote it first damn it.
I bought a New Phone called Huawei Mate 20 x. Because its a whopping 7.2 Inches baby.
Great Phone. Don't really like the medicore battery life. tbh. But thats just phones these days. Partially my fault as well though Cuz I play games on this phone.
Also I'm trying to be a youtuber. and failing miserably.
Funny thing I actually thought XDA was a Huawei specific website. Cuz I only used it for Huawei Mate 20 x lmao.

Are you into flashing ROMs? Might help your battery life... Might even give you some topics for YT: Too often I find either promotional videos or too-simple-minded rants but never balanced testing... therefor I rather stick with letters and numbers (aka written reviews).
