Had mine since January and just recently started flashing ROMs. Slience #9 awesome-ness. I build and service PCs and I believe its al about the user. I hav had no problemsa with mine so far. I do miss the hardware keys that were on the Mogul but not the lack of memory. All in all this phone is just fine if you use it correctly and don't abuse its functionality. Be kind to such an awesome device. WMWifirouter is the end-all of programs especially if you are on the go alot and need a working connection for your laptop when one isn't available. So, no problems yet.
(and I flash A LOT)
