Yeah, the Moto Droid X was the one that made decide to go full touch. I was set on getting that till Moto decided it wasn't for SA. Then came the perfect P1i replacement in the Droid Pro and again Moto decided the Americans were the only one getting it. I'm slowly giving up on Moto being serious about us.
I have stopped taking Eldar the lunatic seriously. He has proven to be an idiot of note too many times. He crushed the N8's camera and we know how that turned out, he provided completely false info on his Arc preview and again was proven wrong. There are too many glaring inaccuracies in a lot of his information that it would be foolish to believe anything he writes.
I also hope that Nokia don't deviate too much from Maemo and try and be a copy cat of Android. I loved Maemo as well, remember how I wished and pleaded for Nokia to bring out an E71 type Maemo device? I thought and still think that Maemo was just wonderful and with time would be exceptional, I just wonder how much of inroads will the OS make in the face of such fierce competition in the form of iOS and Android.

Opened BBCNews and playing flash videos from within the site works perfectly.No wifi issues either.
So far so good.

Dups Never had a Stock Eclair ROM but compared to SE's Eclair it just feels clean without all SE's junk and Blue background everywhere.Its quite nippy overall.Definite performance and speed improvement.That is my main reason for wanting 2.2.Speed.
Stock Contact and Messaging is nice without any of that fancy shit and lag.
Flash 10 very cool.Playing Flash videos within sites is quite nice I have to admit.Didnt care much for it but now that it works its a nice addition.
My battery life seems to have improved quite alot.Been drilling this phone over Wifi the whole day and its only dropped a little.
This ROM comes pre-rooted which is also nice.
Love the new look Lock screen and notification panel.
Theyve done a fantastic job thus far.
Still setting my phone up again so will tell more when I discover more.
