I have tried so very hard to like the start menu/menu system in 6.5, but I simply don't. I actually really, really hate it. I even decided on getting the Sprint Touch Pro 2 over the AT&T Tilt 2 because the Tilt 2 was supposed to come with 6.5, and I feared no one would cook a 6.1 ROM for it. I, too, hope a few chefs will continue to use 6.1 as a base, so that we can get the new SenseUI and have leaner ROMs that still are 6.1. I do plan to try 6.5, once most of the kinks are worked out. The stock ROM is so functional, that I am very hesitant to unlock and flash because I dislike having things that work stop working. Then, I keep flashing different ROMs, trying to find one that doesn't have some significant flaw, but that turns out to be a waste of time. So, I am reading the chef's threads with interest to see when all the issues get ironed out. Seems like that may be a while, though.
