Battery power is going well and holds a charge for atleast 2 days without a recharge and using the phone infrequently. Tied with icontact, the finger friendly action makes this a complete user friendly touch phone. I thought i wouldn't like the missing start menu but now I believe the xclusion of that makes functionality much much better. I am still having trouble getting GPS to sonnect, I do not have a data plan and have it blocked so gps lock tales time, but I cannot get a lock at all so I am going to try the telnet registry tweeks posted here. The only REAL problem I am having is the 6.5 OS is very bloated giving problems using large proggys like garmin xt, but stripping programs I do not use (I would like to have them just because), but taking out voice command may be a solution as I really don't use it. I would like to thank the communities here and other places for the Excellent work helping me make my 6800 function like a new machine and quite personally making my phone function like it should.

My ROM avaliable for download is a clean 6.5 ROM. Meaning nothing but the essentials is on the ROM itself. I like starting out fresh.
GPS is confirmed to work, i have TomTom working perfectly.
