i dont have that type of time, it takes longer for me because I have to do it via storage card... if you cant answer my question why answer at all?

Actually the storage card method is quicker and safer.

Radio performance will greatly depend upon the areas within Louisville that you are placing calls/using data. You have two options as to service networks, either use Sprint or roam on Verizon. The latest Sprint radio 1.11 performs quite well as a general purpose radio in the Metro area, and gives decent battery life (that's in my experience, and again, this can vary depending upon signal strength in the areas where you use your phone). The latest Verizon radio works well if you tend to frequently drop Sprint service in your specific area, but I do notice a decrease in battery life (I consistently use MightyRom on my TP and base my conclusions accordingly).

Generally, Sprint service in Louisville suffers greatly when you enter buildings, whereas I can force my Touch Pro to roam on Verizon in those cases and have much stronger signal.

Look into judging your signal based upon ##DEBUG# instead of looking at only the amount of signal bars shown... search through this thread and the forum, it has been discussed thoroughly.

Hope this helps you out some.

I agree! You can easily verify an image once it's copied to the SD card, and from there you don't have to worry about USB communication errors or computer failure during the flash.. much more reliable IMO.
