My findings:
Rooted stock - no OTA
Battery sux, but that's a given.
No reboots.
No GPS issues.
One user issue is must slide finger down to unlock answer a call - and guess where the phone hangup is? Not smart planning that one out.
Only minor is the occasional force close and the radio part dropping data - a restart to fix that.
While I do not dispute others experiences, I am loving this device. After all it does, I can call folks on it.
Tether while Google is directing me. Put Angry Birds on hold while I get a call.
Yup - it is a keeper.
