Sigh... I guess we need a better list of broken things and how to fix them.

Only time I had an issue with this is when one of my cards was oddly formatted to FAT instead of FAT32... Not sure what else causes SD cards to not work flashing NBH's... definitely need to fix the issue where you can't flash over USB.

Are there any known issues with the full version of Gapps and 1.2.3? |
I thought I said this here as well, but I use the gapps package from Cyanogen. There's only one package for CM7/GB, and it's always worked great for me. ACL - perhaps you should just link to it, and pull down the one you put up.

Should I try 1.2.2 since it's "more stable", or is there something I can do to fix Market in 1.2.3?

This one's been covered quite a few times - set your language to something meaningful under Settings, Language & Keyboard.

CDMA doesn't actually use APN's. At all. That was a hack hyc used in order to easily pass information from the end-user to the system...
Also, APN's will disappear/be ignored if you don't put in the correct MCC/MNC... which again is probably related to the fact that CDMA devices don't actually use APN's.

I've had some good luck and some bad with rebooting. Sometimes it hangs, other times it works great. I'm not sure why it works some times and not others tho... I also might be mixing up bugs, there's a couple different recoveries - are you using AOSP or CWM?
