My new optimum one just arrived a few hours ago. Got an extra sweet price tag of 8712! Have never used Android before but I am comfortable with GNU/Linux, FreeBSD. I am feeling very uncomfortable with Android. Seems very different from GNU/Linux. Does anyone have tips tricks which could be of help to me? What are the similarities and differences between GNU/Linux and Android? What apps should I get for a more Linux like experience? Is there no way to uninstall LG crap with rooting?
Long time GNU/Linux, FreeBSD shifting to Android

First thing you should do is root the phone. Meaning get root/superuser access on the phone which all you to have full control and basically do any changes on the phone.

I rooted the phone, installed clockwork mod and tried two custom roms :- CM7 beta 6.2 by mik and Light 2.2.2. CM7 beta 6.2 works very well but still has many bugs. The most major one is that USB tethering does not work. Light 2.2.2 is just stock LG stripped of all the junk, but there is no precevied increase in response or performance. Going to try Nessy #Fenice which the author claim is very fast and still has very low battery drain.
