05-12-2010 04:09 PMI rooted Sunday (9th). Will never go back to stock. And I was one who said I'd never root - I've had my Droid since Dec 2009.
Bugless Beast V1.0 - Smoked Glass Theme - 1.0Ghz LV kernel.
I've seen May 19th - anywhere in July in the forums when it comes to the "possible" release of 2.2. -

05-12-2010 04:19 PMI think a good question would be...Why do you want to root? Rooting can give more things than the upgrade will; being able to overclock for one. Originally Posted by C5O

05-12-2010 04:22 PMno one can tell you to root or not. I have not rooted my phone and i've had it since launch day.
Reason i don't root, this phone already has so many things i don't know what to do with it. I love how it runs stock and it's fast enough for me. Will I try rooting? Don't know to be honest, I'm more than happy with my phone the way it is.
I came from Windows Mobile and i modded the crap out of that thing. A steady and fluent stock OS is already impressive to me and no need to root, imo. -

With prep work and reading you can go from stock to root back to stock in an hour's time.Chris
If you apply a rom or theme - backup first!
If you don't know how to backup...Stop until you do.
hint: I name my backups like this: sg6.0_20100428 or ss4.2_20100626 to easily find them later. rom and date.
