After calling the Executive Office and speaking to the VP of customer relations, they offered to let me purchase the INC & then issue a full refund AND allow me to upgrade again whenever I want by changing my upgrade date whenever I wish. My INC should be here Tuesday. I hope to have time to figure out this rooting stuff and just knock it out the second it arrives. This may not be the perfect place to ask, but I have one question regarding rooting- does it loose VVM or VZNavigator like putting MightyRom did on my TP2?
With 2.2 they added the VZNav but you will not use it when Google Maps is free with voice Navigation and has a BEAUTIFUL look over Verizon one and it has a monthly cost. Yes the VVM is still there and was in the 2.1 OS.

Rooting changes nothing about the OS. You can be stock and rooted like I was before the custom room. Rooting changes one of the partition in the Linux platform which gives you control over the system options of the device...nothing changes as looks or performance goes...
