Ah, so I guess it would be only a matter of time before we get the official one eh? But I really don't think I'd stick to my Milestone any longer. Unless they unlock the bootloader as well, then maybe I won't go to HTC for my next phone.

Likewise. I doubt this would be happening within this month. Still trying to remain positive though. I just hope that release would be really GOOD, given the fact that they had delayed the release several times already.

270 degrees rotation is kinda annoying for me while I'm lying down and using the phone.
