that network speed is truly mind-boggling. Any plans to root the device and unlock the magic?

eeehhh what the hell. This seems a relevant place to post this. I've been slaving over my phone for the last day and this is the result

The app is Quadrant Standard which is free and usable without root. It runs a benchmark. My friend with a stock Desire ran this today, and predictably, it lined up perfectly with the Desire, right around 500. I'm quite pleased with my benchmark:









For the record, I'm running a droid 2, rooted, OC to 1.35ghz, running the most recent Squidly rom. The rom is key. Benchmarks on stock froyo and the other custom roms, even with the overclock, come in around 1800-2000. Squidly's is lightning-quick and very responsive.

Any other complete losers out there?
