[JaZzY_JeF]

As highlighted by Golgo on xda-developers.com. The new update is available for Swedish users on the HTC website. I'm seriously hoping it will become available for the UK today.

Is there an official changelog anywhere?

I guess you could try downloading the upgrade as apparently it comes with a readme...although I suspect it'll be in Danish, you never know, they may release their readmes as mutli-language docs.

Denmark's ROM is live now too btw.

Is there any benifit of this over MoDaCo?

I think details are still a bit sketchy, but it looks like this is the exact same version as was leaked and used by MoDaCo. Advantages? Most probably none unless they've added any additional bells and whistles, which I doubt. And, if you've used MoDaCo's version, then, arguably, your rooted phone has more advantages than a stock phone, purely because it's unlocked.

It is.

Updating/replacing the ROM will not unlock the handset.

Hi
I'm new around here and I'm a total newbie to the whole android world; I downloaded, rooted and installed MoDaCo's custom ROM and honestly speaking I can't be happier with the phone...now unless HTC have done something major with their official release that I'm sticking to the ROM version I'm using, at least for now.
Personally, I recommend it...just follow the steps carefully and it should go perfectly well.
Cheers

MoDaCos was apparently based on a leaked version of the official firmware. Therefore there will be nothing you dont already have on MoDaCo.
