downloaded it today;
pro: very fast for a BB OS
not much lag, way better than the .133 or any of the 5.0
went on without a hitch
Trackpad sensitivity much faster even after it change the sensitivity to 70%
cons: my calendar and my PocketInformant dates are all screwed up
my Bask up Assistant duplicated about 50 contacts

all in all I like it a lot. I did this because my official 6.0 from Verizon was freezing all the time especially the browser. So I figurred that I had nothing to lose....so far it has been great. No complaints once I get my calendars squared away

Thanks for the feedback. Nice to see that it's working better for you. I know how you feel with an official OS not delivering on how it should.

after one week I went back to .443....here's a follow up to my previous post where everything using .446 was going good basically because it was so much faster than the official OS
1. once re-booted it was very fast to run especially the browser, however my re-boot time went from 3:45 to 5:45
2. my browser freeze stopped... however I would get dropped from the internet if I had an operation of more than 3-4 steps and I would have to battery pull often...usually 4-6 times a day. I would get that notice "you aren't connected to the internet" alot
3. I would lose at least one app everyday....sometimes 3 or 4 just disappeared daily
4. the calendar issue never straightened out and every time I rebooted which was often my calendar showed different events or multiple events
5.Battery life was worse with this OS than nay other I ever had

......last night I switched back to .443

That boot time would just kill me. That's one thing I wish was better for the BB, the boot time. Thanks for reporting to the forum.
