There really isn't that "killer app" that makes the ROM upgrades an ABSOLUTE must (like the GPS in the mogul). The FM radio would be cool but that's not quite there yet.

But I do agree with the previous poster in that it's easy to flash. So if you are inclined flash away!

Numbers would be nice... and could put an end to all debate.
I have to say, my GPS works WAY better with the custom rom I chose. I never had any issues with the Mogul's GPS but do understand what you mean by monument updates. Could you get the GPS to work this well manually tweaking the stock rom?? Maybe, but doing a whole new rom was way more fun.

Not sure what the monument update will be but until then, I'm rockin the best thing out there. Be it whatever Rom you chose, it's not going to be worse than stock and I like improvements.

I'll see if there are numbers in some threads out there but I love my perception right now so maybe I shoudn't.
