Re: Thinking about getting an Evo, need advice.

I'm using the Sprint Lovers ROM on mine and my wife's 2.02, 004 Evo's. No special reason for that. It gets good reviews and I'm new to the droid world, so figured I'd start with that and study the others. It is a change from the WinMo (TP2 most recently) world that I've been used to. You don't have nearly the ability to "hack" little settings to tweak things just the way you want them. But the payoff is a FAR superior web experience, which is what I was after. There are pluses and minuses for me (I still miss my slide out keyboard at times!), but so far, I'm pretty happy with the switch.

My battery life is quite good. I'm not a power user at all, and have most stuff turned off most of the time (wifi, gps, pull mail, etc). I've not run it below 50% in a day yet, and that's with some GPS nav.

Still thinking a little about going back and getting the Epic instead, though. Smaller screen, older OS but has the sliding keyboard and a better screen.
