but not all devel/extras apps are evil.
i would read the updating your firmware wiki and after you are good with flashing give it a try.
Thanks for the info. I'd be interested in hearing specific issues people have had that have enabled the testing repo.. I understand that all the issues are possible but what is the real-world likely hood?

I think I'll practice a re flash whilst the phone is still fairly new (i.e not full of important stuff yet!) and then I'll see how I feel
