I haven’t flashed my device with the new WM6.5 yet. So I am not quite aware of all the changes in the new ROM builds found @ PPCGeeks. But there has been quite a bit of change in the User Interface and it looks great , Microsoft has realized that finger friendly interface is a must and have made some changes and it looks really good. Compare the screenshot below the 1st one is from WM6.5 ROM Build 21139.5.0.0 and the 2nd one is from Build 21925.5.0.60

Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 21139.5.0.0 VS 21925.5.0.60

In the 1st one thee tabs Copyrights, Version, Device ID are the plain old tabs as in WM6.0 but in the 2nd one the position has been shifted to the top and are no longer in tabs but a slider interface. I for one am loving this new look , What about you guys ?

I am using build 21812.5.0.50 which has elements of both, has tabs but they are easier to use with the finger than the 6.0 but not a scroll type screen like the pictures show in the newest version. My phone is a Sprint Touch and it runs great, actually more stable than 6.0 or 6.1, once a newer version comes out from the person that cooks the rom I use I will test it out. From the pic, I think they went overboard on the clock & alarm screen, thats too big for my taste, hopefully the size will be adjustable just like the font size is...
