I have to say that the ROM upgrade has made the phone amazing. Before I had to rely on my n70 (which is on sale btw :-)) for calendar entries and such as the atoms screen would not respond correctly, but now it works perfectly. Also now the battery meter is on the today screen which is also a great help, i had to use spb today which slowed down my atom before. The addition of the wireless manager is also great, all the 3 connections are listed and its really easy to turn them off or on.

the only thing i regret is loosing my high score of 2000+ on Bubble Breaker!!!
