I wouldn't say .40 has lack of 'versatility.' There's a reason so many departments utilize it, but there's also a reason a lot are going away from it. That reason can only be guessed right now.
I'm no cop, but if I had the choice and worked in a large metropolitan, I would choose .40 over 9mm. If I worked rural areas, I certainly wouldn't mind a 9mm XDm with 19+1 capacity.

Re: Texas DPS going 9mm?
Can't say I would be against having the capacity and shoot-ability of the 9mm if I were a solo trooper in rural Texas.
