^ It could be to some extent. Also remember there is considerable difference in the quality of roms available earlier this year and today, this is assuming you are not using stock roms for both times.

I am still on the same ROM (Swedish Spring RLS5). Are there any better ROMs out there after this which are as stable?

Yes definitely. The ROMS based on leaked Gingerbread release (Ginger Stir Fry and Blue Ginger) are just as stable but more optimized for speed and battery life.

Flashed BlueGinger V5 yesterday night. Seems good but the Dev has pulled down the rom due to other dev blaming him.. blah blah.

But the rom is very nice stable and fast

Total chaos at modaco. Seems wbaw is banned and psyloid has left the forum due to some fight. What's gonna be the future development like for the best 2 roms of the blade? :(

^ The new rom is looking very good. Didn't notice any significant boost in performance though, but then haven't played with it much yet. The new icon set is very impressive.

Not sure what happened, but seems wbaw is replying in his threads. Probably he was handed a temp ban. Although Psyloid seems to have stopped posting there.

BTW, @arun and others, has anyone tried both GSF and Blue Ginger v5..? Which one seems better?

After i got my OSF replaced for a couple stuck pixels, the new piece doesn't go into the vol + fastboot mode. Only solution so far was to do a restart into fastboot. Then i loaded CM 7.0.0 which is still compatible with Gen1. It looks and works awesome, only problem is rarely it suffers the charging freeze which requires a battery pull. Now i'm thinking of repartitioning for more storage and upgrading to Gen2 but am confused between 7.0.3, the nightlies and GSF etc. I kinda like CM7 and ADW launcher so i would prefer that as long as the newer versions don't introduce bugs which aren't there in 7.0.0. Any suggestions guys?

Alright, so can anyone tell me if it's worth getting this phone right now or are there any more VFM phones available? If it's worth, then how to source it? My mobile phone IQ has gotten all rusty so I'd really appreciate the pointers! :)
