I've got to be missing something. I found several file managers that can copy files from the phone to SD but I can't find anything like /etc/appdata or whatever. Surely applications store their data in the file system. Where is it hiding?

You are taking a risk sending a rooted phone back to Verizon, albeit a small one. I wouldn't do it. After you get done with your back up remove the root from your Droid.
I disagree with this because I've sent 2 rooted Droids back to Verizon (due to hardware problems) and I haven't had any issues getting replacements.

Well, since I don't have a functioning USB connector, I can't use that process. You make reference to EasyRoot, an app that will root my phone, right? I Goggled "EasyRoot" but I don't trust the results. How can I be sure I"m not getting something malicious.

Second, once I've backed up my old phone, how can I unroot it so that I'm not sending a rooted phone back to Verizon?

TIA.
