Anyways as a token of my appreciation I'd like to host this ROM (maybe the others and the kitchen later) to make it easier for others to get at it. (Well technically SugarSync is hosting it, but who's counting).
Hopefully Caulkin will put it up on the first page. It is a direct link and very windows mobile friendly.

I don't have the latest from a technical standpoint, but as one who cooked a ROM with Showcase, I can say that it worked (for me) about 15% of the time. The first couple of times running it, it would load just fine. After that, it would just go back to the home screen and say Showcase up in the left corner (where Start used to be). Times after that, it would freeze up. Also, on the times when it would work, trying to X out programs had a spotty success record. Trying to run fdcsoft (sp?) task manager while Showcase had failed to start would also result in a freeze, so no shutting it down through there for me.
It was very disappointing because I really got used to the menu in 6.5, and it always worked in regards to closing programs, as well as switching between running programs, which is big for me, so the lack of a suitable alternative was one of the dealbreakers for me on 6.5.1.
Hope this helps. Again, it's just one user's experience.
