OMGOSH!! Even though I didn't complete the guide (I couldnt get it to work), I decided to try and flash Velocity v1.0 anyway, and it WORKED!
I'm so happy. I was on the verge of giving up on ever having Velocity again.
It friggin rocks! Faster and more stable than ever. Got my CPU clocked at 787 MHz right now. Loving the new wallpapers and the new keyboard as well. Thanks a ton Trident, Savoxis and Getitnow for all your hard work.
