Feel free to PM me if you don't want it public...
As for Mango beta, Very, VERY tempted. I can't find a rom OEM for my Trophy (the ones on XDA claim to not work), so I really don't have a backout plan.
I've been reading about people who have been using it on XDA (spent a lot of time on there today reading about this), and every one claims that it's very stable and faster than the current build. Also, a lot of the new features work fine, so you will be getting 85% of the new features working very well to great (some issues but, worth spending some time on XDA as there is a lot of people using it over there).
The speed and perfomance difference is enough to tempt me alone...never mind the features.
MMMMMM....Mangos...
Edit:
My question about the backup addon for Zune, from what I was reading, people used it to go back to Pre-NoDo before, so it might just work to take a full backup of your phone then installing Mango, if you hate it, or too buggy, just connect to Zune and restore... would like to know for sure

Yeah...I have a .edu email addy
I still haven't gotten an email about upgrading yet.
Like you, I don't think there's a full working ROM for my Surround. I saw a few posted but not enough people that actually tried it. So I'm not sure I want to try this either.
I also don't like the idea that I would probably lose all of my games/app settings when the official Mango comes out either. I already had to hard reset it to do the official unlock since I had it unlocked with Chevron before.
