Wow. I can so see both sides of this. On 1 side, you have the newbies that just want roms. "Build me a rom with xyz in it." I was that way once. But,on the other hand, I did some reading, some searching, some asking, and some more reading. I found someone who had made a bunch of OEMs, and started talking to him. I asked him about OEMs, and he taught me a lot. He also made 2 OEMs for me, which both are posted on the FTP -- BTW, 1 of them is SPB P+ 3.2. So, then I rolled my own. Notice, I didnt upload it. I often will download someone's rom and slap it on my spare, play with it a bit, then slap the VZW2.2 on there. I do find it _VERY_ hard to remember what rom from who has what software installed, what has this bug and what has that bug. So, I roll my own.

Bottom Line -- If you cant roll your own, then either go downoad an existing one, and live with it, or learn how to roll your own. It's not that hard to follw directions. Can't write an OEM? Learn. Can't learn? Then stick with the roms from UTStarcom's site.

We now return you to your regularly scheduled program.
