Of course I wouldn't be going to Sprint after rooting the phone. Thanks..!!

You may or may not know this.
With an android phone, you
MUST have a Gmail account.
You can't use the Marketplace w/o one. When you first turn on the phone, it will ask you for your gmail account. That's why everyone is suggesting you put your contacts on gmail.
After you root or flash custom roms, you'll lose your stuff. If you have gmail setup, you just sign back into gmail and all your contacts are back.
