I like some of the clean looking interface (As you can tell) but it's nothing like Windows Mobile. I love my Pocket PC!

Remember to get into BL mode (since you say its been 3 yrs) you have to press both soft keys (minus keys) and hold them while pressing the reset button.

Or, if you're like me, you've lost your fifth stylus from throwing your phone across the room after calling Sprint customer care and you have to use whatever you can find lying around.

Lave it as is. No point in messing with it. I got four different devices with different bootloaders. I can put the same ammount in each one with no problem.

That is true. But you would have to load a lot of junk into it. Most people do a stripped down rom so it doesn't matter.

That equals to a fast streamline stable and efficient ROM

I could not agree more. The more info I try cooking in, the more I just end up reflashing because of conflicts. Lean and mean is the way to go.

Yep. That's why I tell people that there is no reason to revert bootloader to try to gain rom space.
