people flash roms mainly because they like personalization. i'd suspect there are more people using spb software than there are rom flashers.
look around and you'll find quite a few roms out there for the hero - not so many for cdma, but the gsm has a good bit.
from what i read, if you want to get rid of some lagginess that the stock hero (including the sprint version) has you need to flash to fresh or modaco. seems no different than tp or tp2. it would be nice if there was a way to overclock the processor or better yet that htc wouldn't use such ancient hardware on brand new phones (ancient is relative, lol).
now the web browsing i really do agree with. however, i just tried opera 10 beta and man that thing is blazing! no zoom support though so functionality is crap.
i went to the sprint store just a few minutes ago to play with some 'droid phones. i had to see if i could stand using a smaller screen. the loss of real estate wasn't as bad as i thought and man is web browsing more pleasing - especially with multitouch. the moment, even though it loaded pages faster, is just not what i'm looking for.
i plan on tweaking my tp2 a bit more this weekend and make up my mind on what to do - stay with winmo or switch to 'droid.
