Hopefully it is as stable as Merdins, thats why I kept it for almost 6 months without flashing. Only problem in the manila so far is when filling out some of the info ie: the "add new location" in the weather tab, most of the screen turns black. You can still type but it is difficult on some forms. other than that(it's a beta, it's expected to have problems) it's fast, stable(so far), and the battery life isn't that bad either. I'll update with more if I find anyhing else.

Just tried to send a text message, told me my sim card was missing on my Sprint TP. Don't know whats up with that. I also cant text with the keyboard, screen is all black. Have to use the touchscreen keyboard. Guess it doesn't matter anyway if I cant send the text. You can recieve them though.

You can text, and use the keyboard... just avoid the rodium interface... from the message tab just hit the all messages button and work through the standard windows moblie layout
