mostly agreed with above.
Custom roms come with a lot more programs you may actually use in the internal memory, leaving you more memory, less junk, and less programs to install after a hard reset. Over the old official rom (2.7) they also offer a lot more speed.
However, as for stability, I have tried many custom roms, and many are very unstable compared to official offerings. I am on the official 3.3 now, minus the new bootloaders, so that I may upgrade later, but when on custom Roms I would constantly see a signal, but not be connected and thus miss phone calls and text messages and have to reset often. I would also get problems with the phone not recognizing when it is plugged into USB to charge, or when I woke it up the phone would either be locked up or the storage card wouldnt be recognized. Sure, these things didn't happen tooo often, about once a day I would have to reset it just to keep going smoothly and be sure it was working, but It's an annoyance, and right now with this official 3.3 I'm having much better stability and havent ran into Any of those problems I mentioned with my custom roms.
