Re: [March 25th, 2009] "One Rom To Rule Them All..." MIGHTYROM 4.8 [20771] [UC] [24MB

While we're waiting for MightyMike latest greatness, just had to share a quick story.

My Wife: Not technically minded. Hates computers, but upgraded to a Sprint Diamond when her old Sammy flip split in 2 pieces last summer.

Me: Dreams in hex. On computers all day @work. Sprint Diamond upgraded from a Treo 650.

We're heading to friends Saturday night, she is driving, and has directions, but I have Mighty 4.8 and google maps application with GPS lock. She likes that we didn't miss a turn, and got there on time. She knows I have way more apps than her stock Sprint ROM, and is starting to see the light.

She: "If I browse to google, can it follow me on the map?"
Me: "No honey, it doesn't work that way. I've got a custom ROM and it's all built in. If you want, I can get it for you ..."
She(eyes glazed over): "Why does it say I cannot open any more tabs?"
Me: "That's a setting within Opera. Want me to change it for you?"
(she now can open 5 tabs)
She: "Cool! (looking over my shoulder) Is that Mighty Mouse?"
Me: "Yes, that's his moniker. I know very little about him, but he does good work.
She: "Well, if you can upgrade my phone that'd be OK."
Me: "Yessss!"

...Bottom line: Mighty Mike has another convert!

Thought this would be a fun story to keep us entertained as we wait for MR5.

Now, who out there thinks I should drop MR5 on her phone? Should I just flash to 4.8 and let her get used to it?

Thanks in advance.
