After reading many threads from folks who have done the BA upgrade to WM6 I'd appreciate some learned advice thanks:
1..Is bluetooth and wifi functionality sorted out in the latest ROMs?
2..How much slower is the WM6 cook compared with W2003 - eg lots slower, a tad slower or what?
3..W2003 battery life is not that great and I'd read WM6 managed battery better, but the converse has been reported here in the forums. So is WM6 much more of a hog on battery?
4..In the upgrade there is no mention of Java. Is there a method of having Java on the ROM?
5..Is the O/S basically the same as WM6 eg can we put default Windows skin on desktop or is the cook quite specific dependent of the cooker?
6..Anything else anyone would like to add, as there does not seem to be any similar comparison post here between a non-cooked WM2003 BA and modified one.

Thanks kindly,
Alistair.

Now I've upgraded to sun_dream rom can answer the questions:
1..Seems to be better.
2..ditto
3..ditto
4..Java is included on the ROM - great means I can use Minimo browser.
5..Does not appear to be able to change his default at this time.
6..Anything else anyone would like to add:
Did not resize EXTROM, and still operates a lot better than WM2003SE.
Highly recommended to those who can follow the Wiki.
