windows mobile 6.5 roms were available on the tp2 loooong before the official update came out. is it like that for android or does everything have to be official before it can be tweaked?

No. There have been ROMs waiting for Android devices too. It will happen for the Droid once the source is released or once they figure out how to deodex the dump that is out there.

It may be the faster OS precludes the need, at least initially, for overclocking.I am interested in the improvements in the web browser.

An OS that is 450% faster, FLASH!, apps installed to SD, voice dialing over bluetooth, and a better update system for the market. I'm very much wanting Froyo.

Let alone all of the other stuff they added.

Yea they didn't speed up the OS, they added just in time compilation, which only effects programs. The OS is already compiled to machine code.

Again the OS isn't any faster, just the programs that will benefit from JIT. These features are nice, but I will wait for a rom where I can retain my root.

I wish the OS was 450% faster in 2.2...haha. I got an iPad and I have to admit that Android simply does not compare to the iPhone OS in buttery smoothness, and I wish it did. The iPhone OS has impressed me so far. I'm not saying it's better, they are just different, both with pros and cons. Anyway, if 2.2 could smooth things out a little I would be very happy.

I was joking anyway

Hopefully it's here sooner rather than later!
