I'm going to have to disagree here. I was really looking forward to using Juicy's ROM, but I have noticed some serious issues for me that are making me go back to MightyRom's. I hard resetted after installing Juicy's ROM and have noticed performance really suffer only after a few hours of usage forcing me to softreset 3 times already today. I've only installed one application (MagiCall, which I also uninstalled to test) so I don't think there are any incompatibiliy issues.

Even though it shows about 55 - 65% in free memory, it feels really slow. Typing messages in SMS is delayed by a few seconds. Switching to the hardware keyboard is about a 3 second delay. The whole disable HTC SMS app is really odd as I would expect it to open WM SMS when I click on a message but instead it does nothing so all I can do is tap All Messages. It's frozen on me quite a few times just after 1 day of moderate usage. Opening Facebook in the HTC browser was pretty slow even though dragging around in the page felt a little snappier.

The fact that this version of Manila is not landscape-compatible is a minor problem for me, but wasn't a problem in 2.1. Sorry fellas, I'm going back to Mighty until some of these issues are resolved.
