ROM best for GPS(Bell.ca) ? Comparison of NFSFAN's and ghettofreeryder's

Hello, guys, I`ve a GPS-related question.

I'm completely satisfied now with my `stock ROM` Bell's HTC Touch,
the only thing I`d like to have added is some GPS functionality..

Which `custom` ROM should I flash, then?

So far I`ve understood that there are at least two Bell.ca-related
ones:

(6/26/0 Telus/Bell Stock Rom with GPS/RevA

and


NFSFAN's Custom BELL WM6.1 ROM

Which one is better? (In a sense of having the least deviations from Bell's customised features, and, at the same time, to have GPS enabled?)

on one hand,

ghettofreeryder's ROM seems to be very slim, but I do not clearly
understand what's come from Bell, and what not?

________
This rom is a combination of the stock roms, the 3.03 rom, and the sys from the latest diamond rom(19591). This rom is quick, and has GPS and RevA.
Only thing i added was internet sharing. Have fun
________

On the other hand,

NFSFAN's Firmware is based off the 19208.1.0.1 base ROM. It will include:
*Bell PPST (for those using Bell Mobility)
*Bell SelfServe (for those using Bell Mobility)
*Full Bell Mobility Customizations
etc...

but it seems to contain too many stuff I do not want...


So, both are based on some third-party ROMs, and then
both have some bell customized features included...

But again,m sorry for my ignorance, I cannot figure the details from those descriptions..

could someone please! make a qualified comparison!

OMJ's ROM's are solid. I've been using this one all day and it's great! ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/Vogue/Users/OM....Sprint.v2.exe
GPS is solid, and the reg edits/tweaks seem to be very smooth.

They are both solid ROMS and OMJ has several great ones too. I personally flashed the new ROM from sprint and restart before the customizations. So you at least get the new Radio. Have you tried BuildOS. It is a great simple app for building your own with the proper Bell customizations?
