But whoever's providing that should be able to do ROM tweaks in case 
they're needed to support newer features (2.4 kernel, etc)... and 
that's one place where there's NO documentation to be had at all...

Unless Gerald's wizardry can reverse-engineer the existing ROM and 
give us a starting place... ;)

That and the OS Restore mechanism to load new builds onto the box are 
probably the two most critical obstacles to overcome.
