vegantab is how I'm leaning, though I'm going to look again and see
which of the gTablet ROMs have source & build instructions, as I'd
prefer something I can modify & rebuild myself.

Well, there have been some stories about Google withholding the final
3.0 source for a while. Some stories suggest they might start holding
back releases (release N.M source only after releasing N.(M+1)
privately to licensees, e.g. no public Honeycomb 3.0 source until Ice
Cream 3.1 is out), while others suggest it's a one-time delay, as they
add code to Honeycomb to make it work well on phone-sized devices.
Either way, it looks like we users of non-Xoom tabs might have to
choose between Gingerbread and a (buggy? insecure?) preview of
Honeycomb. Since I have seen signs that Google, much like Slim Devices
/ Logitech, actually wants code contributions from the community, so I
think it's most likely a one-time holdback; there wouldn't be much
sense in accepting patches for old code.
