It worked on my AT&T Tilt running WM6.0 which wouldn't activate with the old
version. (It looked like it activated, but I'd get an error message if I
tried to open a DRM'd book. I installed the new version, still got an
error, reactivated, tried to open a DRM book and it crashed and exited
Reader until I soft-reset the Tilt. So my advice would be to install the
new Reader, reactivate and soft-reset all in that order.
