It is just best to activate the phone with the Verizon supported ROM. Then they won't suspect anything and they think everything is kosher. When you flash the new ROM, it won't affect your phone's performance 'cuz the carrier specific info is included in the ROM. However, you pretty much "null and void" any VZW customer support from there on. Not that that is a big deal 'cuz most people on the site know more about the 6700 than the VZW techs. LOL. And if you take it in for repair/turn it in for insurance, flash it back to the original ROM. Unless of course it is totally inoperable (in the insurance case). Bottom line, the kitchens are not sanctioned by VZW.

Edit: Oh, and you can still use OTA update number, I think is #228? That just updates your location and tower info.
