Just download the stock ROM from the HTC website if you want to keep it around, or wait until you need it and download then. The stock ROM has a single click install program just like all the custom ROMs.

Which download is that, exactly?

Is it one of these?
utstar.xxx/pcd/downloads/APAC_SPCS_20600_300_11200_Ship.exe
utstar.xxx/pcd/downloads/APA_SPCS_20600_303_12700_WWE_Ship.exe

So these files contain the full rom, so I could put it back on the phone if I needed to take the phone in for repair or something?

The login for the ftp site is a generic one--it doesn't use your own personal login credentials. That's why it wasn't working for you.

The proper credentials can be found in this thread:

So use it to download PPCPIMBackup as naigaboy suggested. It is an awesome free app and will do what you need with ease.

This link isn't valid anymore...does anyone know what the generic name & Password is for the link: ftp://up.ppcgeeks.com/Apache/Colonels/
