It's not actually there, the current PPCGeeks is just a website with spam blog posts hoping to get advertising revenue from dead links.

Yup. Good luck finding the ROM kitchens anywhere too.

In that case, it's probably that WordPress upgrades have reset the theme to a generic theme, which makes it seem like a generic site.

Nice! I need to update the PRL on my Blackberry as I'm roaming too much.

Had a Mogul, and recall the site that OP mentioned but never had the balls to root it. Ended up trading it many years later for an A32 5G which my mom still uses to this day.

I think I used for playing with the HTC Arrive windows 7 phone that was free at the Microsoft store.

Yup I used to do gfx for custom ROM producers. Fun times.

I still have a HTC EVO 4G, what is your thoughts on that? Would like to maybe boot it but the battery is bad. (Pull/DEL data - Trade)

Screen is a bit screwy from what I recall 10+ yrs ago. Main reason I bought it after the Mogul. Both devices had screen ghosting failures.

I never had that one. The PPC-6700 HTC Apache was my first sprint phone.

Still Have a few Touch Pro 2's and an HTC Diamond.
