I do remember when I was new to this (with my XV6700) and I knew that I just had to make the jump to start "getting it". My only suggestion is to find a copy of the stock ROM for your carrier's flavor of your phone. If you don't like what the ROM does to it, flash back.

Bang ON.

this is my first PPC that i've ever customized. I was extremely intimidated with my first few. BUT, like you said. Taking the plunge almost forces you to understand what once seemed like it was written in german.
