Click here and then click on the pdf link for a chart showing the differences between WM5 and WM6. Not too big of a deal depending upon your needs.

Some apps may not yet be WM6 compatible. You need to look at what you have installed and check those websites to be sure.

The major updates are
office moble 2007
pocket internet explorer 7 (pie7)
exchange server support w/ active sync
more stable
wmp 11
better wizards for setting up email accounts
push email
few others nothing major I wouldnt sugest purchasing a equal ppc just for the upgrade.
Meaning if you have a MDA from t-moblie I wouldnt suggest upgrading to a Wing.

If you going to upgrade a device do it to get more ram and rom and more processing speed, but I wouldnt suggest getting an older wm device as an upgrade. Definately want to purchase something that has wm6 if upgrading.

I attached the actual pdf comparision chart thanx schmenge

Issues with WMP11

Alright, my WMP11, since I upgraded to WM6 is...hiccupping or something, I'll be listening to a song, and it'll skip to another song, play about 2 seconds, and than go back to the original song that it's playing...I'm thinking my MicroSD card is the culprit here, but I'm not sure, is there any way that I can format the card through my phone, or even when it's synced up with my pc? I don't have a card reader, so anything you guys can suggest would be great
