Looking for a custom ROM for your brand new Samsung Nexus S? Is there any? Yup, this gingerbread-running headset has already rooted, and MoDaCo, one of the doer, got their custom ROM downloadable worldwidely just recent.

As the ROM isn't completed yet, at r2 stage, it won't be wise for me to recommend you to give this Nexus S' custom ROM a try at this moment. However, in case you wanna feed your curiosity regarding this matter, you can find out more about it, here.
