Considering it has a WM6 CAB, a WM5 CAB and a WM2003SE CAB file, I'd have to say 'yes, it works with WM6'. ;)

But the question remains: does this slow the device down ;)

With WA3 and WM5, I haven't noticed any slowdowns - it's actually faster than WA 2.8 is... which is pretty fast already.

Yes, but will my old WA2 skins work with it?

Yes. I've been using WBA2 and WBA3 skins since the first beta. The only real difference is that WBA2 skins won't have the charging icon; so when you plug in, it'll show the Windows Mobile default charging icon instead.

Just bought it yesterday and very happy with the product. Highly recommended.

I didn't try any of the betas but went straight from WA2 to WA3 and it's slower on my X51v (A17). Beautiful but slower.

Now that's odd - did you uninstall WA2 first, then install WA3? It sounds almost like both WA2 and WA3 are running at the same time. Is it on a Memory Card or on main storage? I've not seed any speed issues; in fact, as noted, it seems somewhat better, especially when opening the Cascading Start Menu (it doesn't need to pause 3 seconds to draw the whole thing).

Yep, full uninstall of WA2.
WA3 is in main memory (as was WA2).
The cascading menu indeed draws faster but the whole system runs slower.
A program launched from WA3's menu takes about 2 seconds longer to start than the same with WA2.

The initial release of WA3 has a confirmed divide-by-zero problem.
Look for an update this week (3.0.0.2) that should fix it.
