Same for me, I went back to the official release for the hero a little while back cause it was much smoother that the 2.2 and 2.3 releases, but I missed stuff like new GMail. This is soo much quicker as well, I can play Angry Birds and Cordy (best game on the market by far) all the time, navigation is much smoother, watching videos and taking photos is a million times better...
Comes with 2.2, 2.3 update promised soon. I have written a pretty extensive review a couple of weeks ago, check that for my impressions
