There is a port of CM9 or AOKP over at android central. It still is buggy, but it works.

You may be better served by just upgrading to CM7 (gingerbread) for the stability of your device. I know it is not the latest and greatest, but it will be easier on the phone and definitely more stable than the CM10 beta.

Couldn't agree more. It will function as your daily device, but the lack of bluetooth, screen not rotating, roaming indicator, all added up to too much for me. I flashed back to the CM7.2. I used the CM9 beta for about 1 month before I changed back.

I disagree, sure it may have the issues said above, but I've found that it just runs amazingly faster than CM7.2, which for some needs, is better.
