[Q] What would you do?

Originally posted on the general board, but may better fit here...

I will be getting one of these in about two weeks. I had to actually pick up my Christmas from my parents and then sadly hand it to them so that they could make me wait...

So, my question to the forum is this... What are the necessary flash(es) to get this going right away. Based on what I've read, I fully intend to do next to nothing with this before flashing away the crappy TnT stuff. Just trying to get an idea of what all should be done... I've read about the Tegra drivers, some custom ROMs out there, is there is a very simple -- 1. this 2. that 3. other

I've been anxiously following the work on the Vega work, it looks very promising. I'm not necessarily looking for instructions on how to flash; I'm fairly comfortable and haven't owned an Android phone that I didn't like to mod. Just looking to pull together some various topics into a "How to make this sweet right away" list.

Thanks for all the help!

[ed] Maybe rephrase the question... If you folks "in the know" got a new one out of the box, what would you do (and in what order if there are dependencies) to make this a nice, stable, quick machine? Thanks again!!

My plan is to have everything on a micro-SD all ready to go as I travel to my parents so I can open it and start fixing

First thing is to setup your google account so that you have access to the google cloud (calendar, contacts, gmail, and market amongst many other things in the cloud).

Second thing I would do is install clockwork recovery.

Third thing is install rom of choice. they are all good options.

Edit: be aware that this pad has "built in" sdcard so if your micro sd is setup and ready to go you will have to tweak command in recovery folder when flashing clockwork recovery or copy from your micro to the pad's sdcard.

Keep reading the forums - a lot could happen in 2 weeks - TnT Lite 3.0.0 will most likely be out, the Vegan build will hopefully be more stable, and maybe we'll even be lucky enough to have a Gingerbread build floating around.
