I'm wary of doing that. I'm not sure which ones you're talking about specifically, but the only alternative build I've heard of is putting the Hero ROM on the G1. From what I've heard, the Hero barely has enough power to run HTC's Sense UI (or UE, as they call it), and that it's dog-slow on the G1. I think it's gorgeous, but I quickly decided against it. Plus, I don't think everything is supported yet, like bluetooth.
The
JesusFreak seems to be very popular. I would start by reading
this on the
xda-developers forums. I also found info about overclocking the G1 CPU on the forums. I'm going to try running mine at the second from highest speed.
Really? I'm not a fan of any of the ones I've seen. None of them seem to have any beefier hardware than the G1. The only positive is that there are a couple models that are super cheap to manufacture, resulting in $200 retail prices, meaning that if they get picked up by a carrier here, there's a possibility that they'll be free under a 2-year contract. That would be a fairly big coup for Android in general.
You don't like the
Motorola or the
Sony Ericsson Xperia x3I would also love a tablet or netbook running the same os as my phone.
