CyanogenMod6 will unlock the HTC EVO 4G’s full potential

Cyanogen’s name carries weight in the Android ROM community, and for good reason. Thanks to the help of his clever band of hackers nicknamed “Team Douche,” their custom versions of Android will appear on several different phone models. {Root access is required)
I’m most excited about how CM6 will perform on the EVO 4G. In a quick preview video of the upcoming CM6 port for the EVO, we can seethat full Bluetooth HID and full video-out capabilities are in the works. If successful and stable, Bluetooth HID would enable controlling the device with a mouse or keyboard, and full video would enable video out instead of the HDMI out that currently limits what can be displayed on larger screens. This will give users more control over the way the EVO connects to external devices. (And unlike other Froyo ROM’s for the EVO, the cameras will actually be functional in CM6.)
EVO owners will have to ditch Sense UI to get CM6, but I’m personally willing to give it up for the sake of getting Froyo sooner and gaining some new features. This is still very much a work in progress, but it’s something to look forward to if you have a rooted phone.

Wow, this will be beyond awesome when they get Sense working on it.
the article clearly says “EVO owners will have to ditch Sense UI to get CM6″ wtf? did you even read it?
Dumbass he means it will be better after sense is available to the rom.
cm never uses sense ui …sense ui sucks what are you anyway, his big gay protector?
You've got some rage problems. Evo Man thinks the sense UI is awesome. You disagree and think sense UI sucks. If you break it down, you see how petty your argument is?
"suck it" is the one with the rage problems, he jumps in and calls me a "dumbass" when i wasnt even talkin to him..i was just responding to his rage….and he doesnt even know wtf he's talking about, cyanogen and team douche has never included sense ui, and has no plans to but in any case, lets all concentrate on a common enemy….CRAPPLE! its all in good fun, i dont take it personally, hope no one else does either btw, i'm looking into getting a therapist to work on the rage issues…
I have a rooted evo running damage control 3.2.3 I've already diched sense in order to get jit to run stable… I'm also running launcher pro beta so I have a more functional task bar and still have my 7 home screens and pinch for preview. After a week, I don't miss sense at all and the performance boost is well worth it. I can't wait for this rom to come out. for all those who don't think they can live without sense, there is another team working a froyo port with sense UI. If you Google you can find it.
