From what I can tell, you would have to royally screw something up to brick your phone. These devices are pretty hard to brick. I have flashed many a ROM that wouldn't get past the HTC logo, just put it into bootloader ( power+camera+soft reset) and reflash.

You can also get the the Original 1.12 ROM that will relock the bootloader. That way you could take it back to Sprint if needed for warranty work.
