The new touchscreen receiver will be upgradable to use the G6 (this is based on preliminary information from dexcom).

But my guess is that they will invest very little development resources in modyfing the receiver user interface. Based on everything we have read, they are expecting 95% of the users to use the phone app, and are not planning to do much work on the receiver.
