android Cupcake 1.5 build dated 9.9.09

good morning all.
i was very excited to find the 'new' cupcake at
http://code.google.com/p/vogue-android/downloads/list

however after installing and some through testing i have been left with some serious issues. my hopes are that with this post it will help the developers for future builds.

i shall start with the likes....

+ excellent desk top... especially like how the user has the option to make it bigger if one so chooses.
+ like the ability to freely add and remove any applications with simpicity
+ microsoft exchange and active sync are now included
+ bluetooth works semi-reliably to the tune of almost 85-90% of the time
+ low battery drain- when starting from full charge i have gotten almost 15 hours before i needed a charge.
+ works quicker than other builds
+ more widgets- COOL

the still needs help areas

- sound works only about 50% of the time
- will not charge or give accurate battery readings- when battery gets too low, i have had to reset back to WinMO to charge then restart HARET
- camera still not good
- GPS still no dice.. but i still have yet to get the darn thing to function anyway.

overall i give the build 1.5 thumbs up. if anyone has the ability to create patches and/or needs a tester please let me know. i am always willing to help in testing even if i suck at development/everything else
