If you been dying to get your hands on an official Windows Mobile 6.1 update for your Tilt or VX6800, today is the day.  Both Verizon and At&t have followed through on their promises to update their flagship Windows Mobile devices before year’s end.  While many have opted to go the ppcgeeks/xda-developers route, the patient users will finally be able to join in on the threaded sms fun today.

What’s new with Windows Mobile 6.1:

  • HTC Home
  • Video Share Calling
  • Threaded SMS
  • MS Voice Command
  • OneNote Mobile
  • Remote Desktop Monitor
  • Enroll Domain
  • Managed Programs

Some words of advice before you proceed with upgrading your Tilt or VX6800, back up your data!  You will need at least 50% battery, your USB sync cable and a PC running either ActiveSync (Win XP) or Mobile Device Center (Vista).  Typically ROM updates are between 50MB to 100MB and the entire process can take up to 30 minutes (usually 10 to 15).  Now that we have given our words of caution, go ahead and have at some WM 6.1 goodness with the link below.
