To those that have updated the ROM

Has anyone noticed any speed increases with the menus? Such as hitting the start menu, the delay time for it to pop up, has this improved at all?

Thanks

This update isn't on the Australian site yet... Would I be correct in assuming the US update will work on an Ozzie X50v?

Cheers
Adrian
