With OS2008 it is like a whole new (and better) device. Everything is blazing fast compared to OS2007 and there doesn't seem to be any glaring brokenness. A little bit of overclocking goes a long way :] The new transparent UI looks great and dragging things around on the desktop is a breeze. Photo viewing (with automatic aspect portrait/landscape adjustment) is snappy. Much smoother media/flash viewing. Much more standard infrastructure so that you can cross-compile easier. I love rtcomm and how it integrates all the IM/VoIP under one app. The mozilla-based browser works very well. Pretty spectacular guys ... well worth the wait. Two thumbs up! I'll keep digging and bugzilla things as I find them ... but it is not easy work anymore ;] /Mike
