how well does 6.5 run on the mogul?

I'm flashing a rom for a buddy of mine with a mogul, and I'm just curious if it runs 6.5 well, or is it too slow... any input from you guys?

My experience is that everything seems to run pretty well except for IE. IE seems extremely slow for me, but this could be due to the fact that it's ever-changing in some of the ROMs I've tried.

WM6.5 runs fine on the Mogul. Except lately the battery life sucks.

i also thought it ran well.some of the builds have some add on programs that dont seem to respond upon clicking the icon(s).but i do love how the cooks are adding wifi router and it is incorporated into the comm manager.

Thanks guys..I put a 6.5 rom on it and it seems to work well... except that the awesome finger friendlyness of 6.5 is ruined by a sticky screen protector on his phone, lol... gonna have to tell him to get a new one.

I have had a couple issues that may be singular to my phone, but here goes.
1. Battery life is far less than the 6.1 ROM.
2. WiFi doesn't work or I can't tell if its working.
3. IE is REALLY slow compared to 6.1
Now this isn't a *****, or complaint, I was just telling you things I have noticed so far after my update/upgrade. I have to say I am VERY appreciative of all the hard work that goes into creating these ROMs.

running one of the 23xxx (aka 6.5.1) ROMs and I have to say that it's running very well. new IE is better than on 6.1, though doesn't render as well as Opera, but speed isn't to bad. no problems with WiFi or GPS and Direct Push email from Google in Pocket Outlook. don't seem to have a problem with battery life either although I am running one of those 2200maH batteries.

I know when I was running 6.5 I had several issues. it was slow on mine and buggy. i did nt cook a loaded ROM wither. it was very clean and simple. After a few different cookings and the same results i went back to 6.1 which is where I am now.
