I've read threads that the different Kernels made no difference on Battery. Most agreed running some battery saver tools helped most but I also read threads that some of those tools caused other issues.

Only difference on 3G speed I've seen is the recent thread on clearing the Proxy with no mention of rooting or different ROMs in that thread. I doubt a new Kernel will effect that much.
If you are going to wait until Sprint stops upgrading to root, you will never root! That is how ALL future upgrades or fixes will be sent. Besides, those upgrades are available in the upgrades section for rooted phones usually by the end of the day (generally long before most users get notification of the upgrade on their rooted phone).

From my experience with my and my wifes phone the SBC kernels make a huge difference in the battery life.
