Updates coming any day now for AT&T's Treo 680 and 750?
AT&T Treo 750 owners have been waiting patiently (or not so patiently, as the case may be) for an update to Windows Mobile 6 seemingly since Earth was a hot, lifeless mass of molten lava -- and thankfully, it seems that wait might be drawing to a close. TreoCentral's forums have turned up what appears to be a legit slide deck from within AT&T detailing software upgrades for both the 750 and the Palm OS-based 680, with the former getting the aforementioned Windows Mobile 6 Professional, 1.8Mbps HSDPA, Cellular Video, AT&T Mail, AT&T Music, MobiTV, TeleNav, and a refreshed active call display. The 680 gets boosted with PTT support, MP3 ringtone capability, TeleNav, MobiTV, and instant messaging. The slides list October 15 as the rollout date for the 750 update -- a date which has obviously come and gone, so we're holding out the naive belief that we'll see it pretty much any minute now. The 680, meanwhile, allegedly gets hooked up on the 22nd. Here's hoping!

What about the BlackJack?

Seriously, where the hell is the Blackjack update? I swear it seems the only time I post is when I get teased about a WM6 update. AT&T just release it already.

AMEN!
gosh... It's LONG overdue. 8525 and BlackJack ROMs better get released tomorrow!

The 8525 WM6 Rom has been available for months.

The official 8525 from HTC and AT&T has not yet been released. Big Sam, not sure where you are getting your info. If I'm wrong, please let me know because I'm patiently waiting for both the BlackJack and 8525 upgrade.

Been running the unofficial WM6 AT&T ROM on my Treo 750 for about two weeks without any issues - I wonder what the hold up is at AT&T's end?

Can somebody enlighten me on how to get the "unofficial" WM6 on my treo? where to find and how to install. Thanks, I can't take it anymore!

Treo 750 update has been "any day" now for 3 effing months! I really love the form factor of this device but this system is in DIRE NEED of bug-fixes and an OS refresh!! I sure hope the wait is worth it... I'm sure AT&T would respond by saying "We wanted to do EXTENSIVE testing to make sure this is a production-grade update. We DEMAND our manufacturer partners eliminate ALL bugs, etc, etc, blah blah." Then we'll find 13 shitty bugs on day 1 of the delayed release.
Man, I sure am negative for a Monday morning...
