? Dude, get the ESE53. Much better. It is the 2.1 official (almost) VZW Droid release.

EDIT: I was running DM/Sholes stuff too ... though it is awfully silent over their nowadays.

Re: Favorite ROM and Why???

I switched from Smoked Glass to Pete's Bugless Beast 2.1 (based on ESE53) yesterday and I immediately noticed a difference in speed. Pete's ROM at 550Mhz feels MUCH faster than Smoked Glass at 1Ghz! I'm sure it has to do with 2.1 optimizations and the fact that it's pretty much stock, no themes. Check it out!

Re: Favorite ROM and Why???

I am using Kousch's port of a CyanogenMod rom for the Nexus one. It is pretty fast and stable. It has a few good themes available for it as well.

Re: Favorite ROM and Why???

how long do you think it will be before we get something for the 2.1 verizon has just released mines updated to that and was very disappointing with it as it seems the same. also i looked at roms and the glass rom is really good looking. any opinion. i have never rooted my phone and now that i read i will have to wait it sucks even more should have rooted and been done with it.

As far as I know you can use the current methods to root with no issue.

I don't think you missed the boat on anything. Nothing is different today than it was yesterday. If you want to root and install a ROM, what is stopping you? The OTA update will not interfere with that and I'm betting that they have the ESE81 in these ROMs before too long and in the mean time you really are not missing anything by flashing a current ESE53 ROM that I know of.

I am completely happy with DM 1.0 as well. With all of the extras and the overclocking at 1.2ghz, it makes the iFone look like a stupid little toy.
