I have a few questions:

Does the 1.50 rom support 6GB storage card out of the box like 2.16? If so, is this via the 2.16 driver or the 777 hack? I think the 2.16 driver might be better because I heard that the 777 hack was not recommended to install if you did not have a >2GB card, but the 2.16 driver was designed to be shipped with new phones with the 512mb card.

When I install this ROM, will there be a step where it downloads Sprint updates on the first boot, which I need to soft reset to prevent? If so, should I soft reset? If I do, will I need to download any seperate fixes for the Sprint updates that fix stuff like volume norms, or are they included? I read about these issues in the ROM update thread, but I am not sure which apply to this custom ROM.

Also, I am guessing I still cannot install this ROM in Vista without hacking my drivers, although the official 2.16 update installed fine through Vista. I have other computers with XP around which seems better than messing with drivers on my machine.

Also, no solution on putting internet sharing in the clean rom or as a seperate download yet? And if it was in there, is it something Sprint charges for where I would need to read up on lots of hacks before using it, beyond this ROM itself?

Is the custom ROM supposed to conserve RAM, or conserve ROM? It seems like one is in short supply and the other is overly abundant. So, I would think it would make most sense to remove things for making the clean rom that consume ram, or that the user might want to update, and to not get stuck in the 6700 ROM-starved mentality. If OS components like VOIP and Internet Sharing cannot be added seperately from the OS and dont consume RAM when they are not being executed, I think they should be left in. If things like solitaire would be a pain to reinstall one by one, are unlikely to get updates, and only consume 20-50k of ROM, I think they should be left in. Something like HTC Homeplug, which has a bunch of versions and is constantly updated, and has many alternatives, is another thing entirely. Its cab takes just seconds to install, so one would hardly need it in a ROM unless they like to hard reset very often.

Also, maybe it would be possible to list links to the common added cabs all in one place in the first post rather than scattered throughout 40 pages. In general it would be nice if there was one thread somewhere with links to the current versions of all popular addons. If it was easier to find all the latest cabs, people wouldn't need a custom rom as much.
