The way MS only lets you select MS programs for the 'favorites' section drove me mad.

I used the ROM's for around a week each time and couldnt learn to like 6.5.

that's cool. I would suggest if you want pure speed to the web, try opera mini, ucweb, bolt browser. all of them are faster with mini being the most complete.

Oh I simply meant getting to the browser of choice took a lot longer on 6.5. I like Opera Mobile more than Opera Mini because Mobile is more full featured (I had Mini on my sanyo M1 before i got the diamond) I use my phone for mostly browsing the web, google maps and texting. I found all those to be much more difficult in 6.5 when TF3D was left out as it now seems that is the 'cool thing' to do...For now I'm sticking to Mighty ROM R3BORN

I definately like 6.5 better. I have tried out all major cooked rom versions on here. All of them great in there on way. I have even cooked a few of my own. For me, I just like the feel of the vertical scroll better, and the layout of the start menu better. The only thing that bugs me about 6.5 is the random messaging bars that pop up ocassionally on the home screen other than that, I really have no complaints. I think WinMo is headed in the right direction, I just hope they keep heading that way.
