it all depends on your HBOOT version, i have a new EVO harware 0004 but it came with the older HBOOT, not sure why, but I'm fully rooted with unrevoked

Could be if you have Build 3.3XXXX with a different HBoot, Unrevoked won't work. Apparently, people with the latest build have unable to achieve root but I do believe they're working on a workaround.

currently this is true. unrevoked 3.21 doesnt work on hboot 2.02. unrevoked used an exploit in hboot to temp nand unlock and flash recovery. this exploit to temp unlock nand has been pathced in hboot 2.02 which comes with the 3.30 software.
