We currently have a very promising linux port happening. You'll find more info under #htc-linux on freenode, under the wiki or on this forum.
Please enjoy the forums!

Don't own an Apache, but I am happy that the Apache forums have been added. It makes xda-developers an invaluable resource.

Awesome. Thanks to whoever made this happen!

Thank you for the new forum.
I will be posting some questions later. Trying to get A2DP to work on my device has been a pain. :x

Officially, you can't and I don't know of unofficial upgrades either. However, Toshi has released a free (!) WM2003SE upgrade for it.
Also make sure you check out the Toshi 800/830 forum ( http://forum.brighthand.com/forumdisplay.php?f=52 ) at BrightHand, it's the most lively Toshi forum out there

i dont think so
Roms are device specific, so unless toshiba release or have released a rom, it wont happen. A quick google suggests they havent, and if they didnt release wm5 they definitely arent going to release wm6.
Sorry about that, but why not upgrade to a hermes or artemis or even a kaiser, theyre all great devices, and my hermes, well i couldnt do wihtout it, and the mass of roms for it, you can customise it any way you like. [If you do want one, ebay is the best place]
Sorry for the bad news
