New xv6900 and Pocket PC noob

OK, pocket PC noob and smart phone Noob here .
I just got a verizon xv6900, which I have found out is similar to the Sprint Touch. I finally figured it was time to get a phone that was more then just a phone, so I could drop my palm pilot, and maybe cancel my data card plan for my laptop. Anyway, what I want to do is change things around with custom ROMS. BUT once I do this how do I go back to the Verizon ROM, just in case? I have not seen a ROM for the Verizon model xv6900. Some of the things I would like to be able to do is use the Bluetooth connection to connect to the web, while at home, or where BT connections exist. I would also like to 'share' the internet connection from the xv9600, so my laptop can access the net through the BT card on the laptop as well. So sometimes the xv9600 will be the internet connection, and sometimes it will use a different source for the internet, all depends on where I am. I would also like to enable the GPS, which I hear needs a new ROM to be flashed. I already have Resco registry editor, and PIMbackup installed, spend a considerable number of hours this weekend reading, and now I just need a good starting point. Do I unlock with coke, or some other utility, what about QPST. I have been with Verizon for better then 10 years, and finally wanted a phone that had some features, but as usual verizon dumbed down and crippled the phone... help....
