I'm giving it a go - so far so good.
I don't want to sound ungrateful for the terrific work that is done in preparing these roms. But, one thing that is a bit annoying with the included is the time it takes to load them when installing or a hard reset. Not sure how long it takes - is it 30 mins? must be close.
It may be worth having a reg edit and touch explorer that work, and other rom specific apps, but other than that I'm not sure.
Given this, personally, I think I'd rather load the apps I want after the install. Or at least have an option to load them.
