(Someone correct me if this is wrong...)
Is that higher clock used for everything or just the SDHC card transfer? If everything, I imagine that would suck more battery power. Other than the clock speed difference, what else is different between the official kernel and the one you mentioned? Where can I obtain it? Is is safe to use? If it blows up my N800, can I flash back to the official software?
