Only other concern - is that of battery performance. Other threads seem to suggest updating your kernel, using setcpu, and disabling DRM ... is this all needed after flashing? If so, where are the instructions?
How is GPS? Most reviews I read state that it's an issue... does this ROM fix that?

I've been getting great battery life. The 4.1 update includes the Genocide kernel, so no need to flash the kernel separate. Go get SetCPU here:
SetCPU for Root Users [2.1.1a] Dual Core Madness 2/27/2011 - xda-developers Install this after you flash the update, then set it to conservative. You can easily go all day with this setup.
Ignore the post in the EB13 battery thread complaining about battery life. They have some other issue (hardware or battery related) that is not common on this device. Note that the battery does drain much faster if you leave your phone in recovery mode for an extended period of time. Also, one other trick to help extend the battery life is to go to settings/applications/running services and kill the DRM app. Another thing you can do is freeze it with Titanium Backup.
