Question 1: Will we have to pay extra for the privilege of easily seeing what tasks are running?
Question 2: Will we have to pay extra for a simple way to close applications?
Question 3: Will the Today page show any useful information, or will we have to pay extra?
Question 4: Will the vertical scroll bars be moveable to the left hand side for left-handed users?
These are the four features that people have wanted from the first iteration. Now MS are up to the sixth.
Doesn't seem too likely now does it.

#1, i think you can easily see that already
#2 You have the option i think (i read somewhere) where you can choose the behavior of the X button. There's a setting that says, "Close" or "Minimize"
#3 What's useful for you? (might not be useful for other people. I actually find the default page good... not too much info like that Facade program)
#4 - I guess that's an option in PocketPC as i remember seeing that i think.
As for WM6 Launch... i hope my phone (Cingular 3125 gets the update)
just waiting for the OK to update my personal phone
got me a Universal JasJar from iMate
if anybody has any questions PM me
