I aint done it but lots have on howard forums, and what do you mean what feutures are lost in normal firmware?

The ME f/w just adds a new music player, with support for album art and differant visializations, and a couple of new themes....

I have read the ME f/w also takes up more memory thus making the phone a little slower though i could'nt personally say

I dunno about that, after reading more up on it i personally would'nt update.

A few people on HoFo have "bricked" there phones rendering them useless, also a guy on there who has spoken to some nokia guy from finland who says the f/w is extremely unstable at the moment....
