On July 2, Samsung released WM 6.5 for the Epix / i907. It is available here:

Q: How do you get the Samsung official WM 6.5 upgrade for the Epix / i907 to work on Windows 7 64bit?
The trick is to get the drivers installed and then the Vista 32-bit installer works fine. You can get the drivers from:
http://downloadcenter.samsung……taller.exe.
Run this install program. It will put the drivers in Program Files (x86)/Samsung but installation won't work. Next open the device manager and then update the driver for each of the non-working devices… Select the Program Files (x86)/Samsung directory. Windows 7 will successfully find and install the drivers.
Note that you will also need to set the USB connection mode to “Modem”. This is located in Settings / Connections / USB Connection Mode.
Q: Does HTC CM Internet WiFi Sharing work on the official Epix WM 6.5 release?
Yes. But to get it to work I also needed to install and RUN the Topaz CommManager. Start CommManager running and then start CM Internet Sharing. See this thread for details.

Note that the Topaz CommManager works but is not as clean as the default Wireless Manager. Also I installed the Application Unlocker from:

But not sure this was necessary.
Q: How do you get rid of the Startup and Shutdown animations and noise.
The following works on the official update.
