Just activated my Omnia i910 from VZW, what to do first

Just activated my i910 and want to start adding software but wanted to see if there are any upgrades to do first before I waste time adding software, music and movies to the device. Should I upgrade the OS to WM 6.5, I've seen others add SPB3.0, any thoughts. Moving from a Samsung i730 and a Blackberry Curve that I returned when I switched companies.

Thanks for the advice in advance.

Tom

I kept is stock for the first 3 days jus to get a baseline, then I added the Verizon supported CF03 update. Now I'm on the fence about going cooked or wait for official release. SPB MS 3.0 is a definite, I think SPB keyboard is highly recommended, and I don't know about what else.

I'm leaning towards Blazingwolfs 6.5 rom. Just haven't pulled the trigger yet.

I did the VZW update and am definitely getting rid of the Weatherbug, I saw that others were having problems and with a quick weather.com check it will have to do. Going to trial SPB 3.0 later today and test that out.

Other option is trading in for OmniaII as suggested above, curious on costs as I paid full price for an i730 a few years back and don't want to pay full price again. Thanks alot, I'll keep checking out whats what on the forum.

isnt the omnia 2 more bulky? the original omnia seems so much more portable than my i760 so i would hate to go back to that.

When is the O2 coming out anyways?

BTW im using Blazingwolfs rom and loving it. Try his MS3 verision. I guarantee you will be happy.

thanks, I'm coming from an i730 so anything is better when it comes to putting it in your pocket. I'll look at Blazingwolfs, pretty happy so far with the current setup.
