The other one, is awesome. I had issues at the beginning, but after a handful of wipes and flashes, I finally have a stable rom with ICS. Make sure you run the built in A2SD since I found that to be best for me. Got over 30 apps installed right now, and still got 130MB of storage space

ya AOKP is not stable compared to CM. cm team pwnz all. can't wait for cm10. JB is already ridiculously smooth, i'm underclocking at 1036mhz and its still faster than ICS. O_O
source needs to be released ASAP. i'm getting bored of just messing with xmls and pngz

I was just saying its good you did it that route, instead of making the impulse pre-order through google directly, which will end up being more costly. I've never made an impulse buy so fast as I did with this
I really wish this thing had sd card support!
