On another note, since I was too impatient to wait on my learning curve when I made the jump to Android with this phone and just went the "easy" unrEVOked route... I just used ADB shell for my very first time, no more cherry for me! HaHa!

So I guess the "forever" part of that unrEVOked means I can't unroot this thing and then re-root it old school just for fun and learning??
Yeah no unrooting for you. Your "S-Off" is permanent. You could in theory flash a stock unrooted ROM but you wouldnt be "unrooting" so there'd be no point from the learning aspect.
I really dont get the latest trend of un-rooting/re-rooting.
I did it (like you said to learn) way back in the beginning but some people seem to think it will "fix" things. With hboots changing and Sprint/HTC throwing up roadblocks to rooting I say it's not worth the risk. (I know those roadblocks will eventually fall but still....)
