Aximsitex3icon X30 Firmware

My X30 (624mHz) is still using ROM A5.
I assume A6 is the most recent, I could not find one newer than that.

I there any real good reason to go from A5 to A6 ?

(Sorry if this has already been discussed, I did search for it and found no detailed thread)

The only thing I've read that is related to this is the stickied A06 upgrade thread. Which is alot to read now. I have found no reason to upgrade my rom yet so I haven't. I believe the few things you gain is a new BT stack(which that can be upgraded on your A05) and the ability to connect to wifi even if your battery is <20%. Downside I remember is battery lifetime is shortened. But this is only what I remember.

There is a new BT stack with ROM A06, but for whatever reason you also lose the ability to send contacts (and possibly other PIM info?) by bluetooth in addition to not being able to dial via bluetooth apparently. If you utilize bluetooth in those ways, then I would definitely not recommend upgrading to A06.
