@e4: I can't help you about the Exchange Server stuff because I don't have any email accounts that work off that. Closest I come to that is my College address but it runs off IMAP rather than anything else. I had to use Yahoo's credentials to send OUT mail too.

@Rogdor: All the paid apps that I had were available to redownload. The information about what you have paid and haven't it kept with Google rather than on the phone. Which is why you have to log into your gmail account. 3g works wonderfully and the whole phone seems much faster. I also seem to have a bit more "free memory" on 2.1 than I had on 1.5. The APN settings are also online (just google "Rogers APN" and they'll come up) which is where I found them (since I didn't write those down). For some reason when I went to "restore" APN settings through the app in the market it didn't work.

I used Beerkan's firmware version and then further modified it with Leshak's Samdroid version. I have root access now (apparently just installing JD1 only gets you a new version of Android but doesn't give you actual root access) with it now and live wallpapers work. My complaints from the previous post I made (dockbar and "uncentered" widgets) are completely gone with Leshak's Samdroid version.

Apparently the Samdroid version has a ton of APN listings but I haven't a clue where to find them. I ended up adding them manually.

I don't think I got the Apps2sd working either but I can live without that.

Voice search works though I'm not too sure about its accuracy. I went to google something, decided to try out the voice search and got a google search for something else. Just tried texting "Sorry" and it came up as "Screen" on my Spica. Maybe I'm just speaking wrong? I'll have to play around with that a little more.
