ouch you probably made a wrong decision financially wise too. Android does not run as smooth as wp7 does because there is not really any good hardware acceleration built in yet and there are alot of background processes that demand being ran with no real way to control them without causing other problems. 4G is a huge battery sucker there's even threads on here about the battery issues on 4G. rooting will give u the ability to sideload apps,tether for free and the ability to flash custom roms which may provide additional functionality but be careful as some custom roms may break some of the default functionality.
