Android ROMs and Apps

    Having just got a HTC Hero in the last few days I'm wondering now which of available ROMs out there (Cyanogen, Modaco, Vanilla, Villain) is generally regarded as the best.

    Currently I'm running the stock android 1.5 with HTC Sense and tbh find it fine, well laid out & no real lag. Is it really worth the move to another ROM or perhaps at this stage just wait for Android 2.1 in April.

    On the Apps front what would be your top three apps (currently have Cabbage & JAertel) that you have running on your phone.

    I'm on Villain, which is a great ROM. Its Android 2.1, and the ROM version is v4 Beta 1 (came out on Friday). Very stable (hasn't crashed yet), and performs well (with speed tweaks promised for a release tomorrow).

    I'm a bit pissed off with Modaco. I subscribed so I could 'bake' beta ROMs easily, but Paul O'Brien dumped his Hero for a Nexus, so he hasn't been very active on the Hero forum (and therefore neither have I.)
