Heres a really impressive and snappy rom done by Hero_Over I found at BakedSnackShack.com. Very easy install and Stupid fast!
This is where most developers try to say fancy stuff about their goals and such. I want this ROM to be fast and have awesome battery and some coolio features too.
IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO USE APPS2SD YOU MUST FORMAT A 512MB+ EXT4 PARTITION WITH CLOCKWORK. WHEN YOU FORMAT YOUR SDCARD WILL LOSE ALL DATA SO PLEASE BACKUP!
