The ROM comes in two flavours: Lite and Full.
Lite comes without all unneeded services and apps.
Full package contains all of the apps left out. This is an addon for the Lite package and doesn't work on it's own!
There's an additional Game MOD available, which can enhance your gaming experience on the Tab by unlocking more games. Check the MOD section for RocketTabOnFire MOD!

Video reviews:
[Your video review here...] The former ones were from RocketTab v1.0, we need new ones!!!
DISCLAIMER:
This one voids your warranty. But since a custom recovery is needed, there shouldn't be one anymore
I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please do some research if you have any concerns about features included in this ROM before flashing it! YOU are choosing to make these modifications, so you should know what you are doing.
PERSONAL NOTE:
I do this in my rare spare time, so please be patient. I can't do a new ROM release every day and if you want a Mod, why not build it for the community? I will assist you.

How to install: (even more noob friendly install guide here...)
- make sure you have a working custom recovery (the ROM comes without one)
- I recommend PhilZ Touch recovery v2 by @gr8nole
- download one or both zips and put them on your internal memory
- download any additional MOD, you want to apply afterwards
- backup any app and data
- start in recovery mode
- do a full nandroid backup, just in case
- FULL WIPE recommended to avoid any problems
- install regular RocketTab (Lite) ZIP
- if you want the full Sammy experience, just install the RocketTab Full package afterwards (if not, skip this!)
- install MODs afterwards
- reboot and enjoy!
