OKay, this thread needs a little bit of clarity... here we go:

All of the 6700 wired accessories will work perfectly fine on the 6800. The only "proprietary" bit about the USB jack is for the Y plug that allows you to charge and listen to the wired USB headset at the same time. A 6700 car charger will work fine in the 6800.

Size. The 6800 is marginally thicker than the Moto RAZR. The slimmer form factor alone is a wonderful benefit over the bulk of the 6700.

Lithium Polymer. For those that don't know, that means higher mAh and smaller battery size. I am getting comparable if not better battery life on the stock 6800 battery vs my extended batteries in the 6700.

As for the lack of ROMs, we're working on it. Thus far, we have managed to figure out how to get into bootloader and read the partition table of the phone. It shouldn't be too much longer before we can get a ROM dump.

The processor is great. I've noticed marginal increases in speed and overall performance on the 6800 and while I have crashed the thing a few times since getting it, it's been far more stable than my 6700 ever was.

Hope that clears up a few things.
