Beta 1 Overview:
Ok just booted it up, signed in to twitter and google, and posted a few screenshots, first impressions, it starts up the first time slow of course, but rosie is more responsive, the font is ok, but may need to be changed.. I am gonna continue testing this and see what else I can share, its definately good enough to play with.

The responsiveness is definitely better, and after I installed the Overclock widget in the market it seemed even better


Restore Original Boot Screen:
I didnt like the new boot screen, so I changed it back to the cute little bots peeking behind the HTC logo, this is how you do it:
Download: http://drop.io/HeroPorts/asset/cutebot-zip
Extract that to anywhere
adb remount
adb push boot.gif /system/media
adb push boot.mp3 /system/media
enjoy those little guys

Restore Original Fonts:
I also didnt care for the fonts much, here is how I reverted back:
Download http://drop.io/HeroPorts/asset/origherofonts-zip and then extract zip
adb remount
adb push fonts /system/fonts/
adb reboot
