From the same person who brought you Windows Mobile 6 on the Treo 750 way before it was actually released, it’s happening again! It’s Windows Mobile 6.1 on the Motorola Q9h!

First, some background story: I knew Windows Mobile 6.1 was coming for the Q9h. I’ve actually been waiting for it for awhile now. Seeing that this exact same thing happened before (AT&T has the firmware ready, but waits forever to release the actual binaries), I figured I’d just wait for the official release. Besides, I had a new phone and the whole not-a-touchscreen experience was new to me.

Enter: My friend Mike, who sends me a text message conveying his excitement on the purchase of the Motorola Q9 [insert letter here]. He wants me to send him cool software for his new phone, because “WM 6.1 isn’t available for my phone yet.”

Me: Hmmm… WM 6.1.. It’s been awhile since I’ve checked up on that, hasn’t it. Why not take a look on the ‘tubes and see what I can find..

Bingo.

Phase 2:

?????

Phase 3:

Profit!

Now that the phone is flashed, it’s time to get all of my stuff back on it again (programs, etc.). I’ll report my progress and opinion of the upgrade after I get some real use out of it.
