Root What else can I do?

I'm about a year late, but I finally joined the root crowd. My original goal was just to overclock as I was getting sick of inconsistent laggy operation. Now that I'm running at 1Ghz it's absolutely unreal. It's like I have a new phone. After that I started to look into it more and took advantage of some other fun stuff. Here is a list of what I've done so far:

Cyanogen 6.1RC4
ChevyNo1-1.0Ghz-lowV-7slot-update.zip
SetCPU - OC to 1Ghz
CacheMate
Drocap2
Wireless Tether

...as well as simple things like removing labels from home screen icons and putting music controls on the lock screen

Does anyone have any specific suggestions for what else I can do? I'm addicted.
 
Welcome to the addictive world of rooting and ROMming! :D

I can safely assume you have backups made, so my only advice is to try different ROMs. I was using CM6.1RC4 but Ultimate Droid 2.1 stole me away as a daily driver. It's near-perfect, and so customizable that even the bedside clock screen saver's color can be adjusted.

Glad to hear your Droid is tuned up and running fine. :)
