VegaICS, Almost 3 Weeks in Beta -- No Update Yet

This is the third week, since VegaICS -- A community build ROM for Advent Vega, POV Mobii, Viewpad 10S and other shuttle device family similar to it -- upgrade its status to Beta1. Of course we have been following this information closely on its original thread. Some of us really looking forward for 3G fix and the long waited internal GPS patch from all this VegaICS enthusiast.
Some new feature you can expect to be there when it updated will be the ability to connect to an adhoc network.
I personally hope for some speed improvement. Although its more stable now, being beta1, there is still some need for speed :). Some 720p movie still not play as I expected.
I hope it will be released soon enough so we can have something new to play with again.
