What are your experience with this? I'm currently using it and it works fine, but I'm I think 2.1 worked better

Opinions?

I'd just say make sure you get 2.3.1. After 2.3's release there was a flurry of feedback resulting in significant bug fixes and 2.3.1 was released. I didn't have any issues with 2.3, but updated anyway. Personally, I think the new version is awesome compared to the prior. Lots of little stuff in there I really like.

Puzzles me as to what 2.3.1 would offer over current version?

That depends. What's your current version?

From the Developer's topic:
(New for 2.3)
- New layout of main app
- Full logging
- New request layout
- Fixed boot/widget bug
- Date/time format options
- Better notification system
- New icon
- Better allow system
- A whole mess of code cleanup
- Rearranged drawables so that only one apk needs to be built for any firmware
(New for 2.3.1)
- Big bugfixes
- Better support for landscape mode
- better support for ldpi devices

There's actually a lot of little, nice things he hasn't listed. If I get a chance I'll do a topic on it.

I'm not sure what he started out intending to fix. Apparently a lot of folks were starting to revert from 2.2.x to 2.1 because of the boot/widget bug that was introduced in 2.2. That's one of the things fixed in 2.3. In any event, it sounds like once he got in there he decided that an overhaul was needed.
